“The 2018 State Accountability report tells us something valuable about a school or school system, but it does not tell us everything about that school or system,” Alabama Superintendent Eric Mackey stated in a prepared release after the release of the grades for the schools and districts. “Based primarily on a particular assessment, it is a snapshot in time. When stacked together year after year, similar to snapshots of your family, these pictures of school academic performance can certainly can be used to monitor academic progress and growth. But when we describe our children, we use more than snapshots; we talk about their personalities, struggles, challenges, aspirations, successes.”
