The Parent Power Project is only one member of the coalition; our endorsement of the idea would depend on the details.

Assuming White's proposal isn't just an election year stunt, creating a parent report card would require a change of the parent involvement policy.

If you read the link that you posted, you will see that Van's proposal links trigger laws to parent report cards that aggregate the parent involvement of the school.

This report was woefully incomplete. The Coalition's objection to the White proposal referred to the section of "Responsible/Involved" Parent Trigger that proposes that only parents with a "track record" of involvement are eligible to pull the trigger.

The problem with most reporting, even the lengthier, more detailed reporting found at City Newspaper, is demonstrated in this excerpt. I know Commissioner White's proposal very well, yet I can't see how anyone - with or without that knowledge - can come to the above conclusion.
