Very odd to see Unbound Academy / @Alphaschool leadership modify slides they already presented to their school board, adding "NOT OFFICIAL" and "PRELIM." I'm curious how that kind of post hoc editing lines up with Arizona Public Records law. docs.google.com/presentation/d…

This is true. I chose not to include @Alphaschool's proprietary, unvalidated metric that swung 200% in one week at the end of the school year. This is public education, folks. You have to measure with the same yardstick as everyone else. x.com/ben_m_somers/s…

Replying to @MrDanielBuck
There are other slides from this deck that comment on growth scores; Dan chose not to include those in his article
