She is D.C. schools chancellor for just one more day, but that didn’t stop Michelle A. Rhee from issuing one last warning Thursday, this one to ineffective teachers and the undergraduate education programs that granted them degrees.
“Now we have a new teacher evaluation system where we know who’s ineffective, minimally effective and highly effective,” she told a hotel ballroom filled with educators attending a College Board forum. “We’re going to back-map where they came from, which schools produced these people. And if you are producing ineffective or minimally effective teachers, we’re going to send them back to you.”
