When Schools Can't Hold Students Accountable

from If Teachers Ruled the World · host Leah Cleary

English teacher Laura French joins Leah to share a powerful story about a student passed through the system without mastering basic skills. And the impossible position it put her in as his high school teacher. Together, they unpack the pressures of graduation rates, CCRPI scores, and the emotional toll of policies that clash with classroom reality, while imagining what accountability could look like if teachers designed the system themselves.
