Detroit Public Schools Gave 8 of 10 Teachers Highest Rating Despite Being Nation's Worst Urban ... [Michigan Capitol Confidential]:
79 percent of DPS teachers rated as 'highly effective' which is twice the state average
When Gov. Rick Snyder recently proposed creating a new school district organization to serve Detroit schoolchildren, he cited a “lack of educational success” and “failing academics” and pointed out that Detroit is the “nation’s lowest performing urban school area.”
However, the Detroit Public School district's most recent evaluations of its own teachers paint a picture of success in 2013-14.
The district gave 8 out of 10 teachers the highest evaluation possible — “highly effective.”
....The percentage of teachers rated highly effective by DPS was twice the state average of 38 percent in 2013-14, the latest year statewide data is available.
