Springtime at Harvard!

Busy Busy Budget Season here in Montgomery County was just recently finished! Wouldn't you think that our highly-paid Superintendent Jerry Weast would be in town, feverishly reading through the budget books, looking for cost efficiencies and savings?

Instead, it appears he was at the Strategic Data Project at Harvard, giving a speech on:

Strategic Use of Data: Challenges and Opportunities in K-12 Education
Speaker: Jerry Weast, Superintendent, Montgomery County Public Schools
Wednesday, May 18, 2011

Wonder if he mentioned MCPS' own data from the Office of Shared Accountability that showed that student test scores tanked once he began the closure of the secondary learning centers?
