Who might be weighing in on NCLB redux?

This guy:

Johnston’s unquenchable thirst for the designer brand of NCLB Kool-Aid is enough to make true educators lose their insatiable appetite for teaching. He applauds that “states have developed the sophisticated data systems needed to measure…effectiveness.” He does not want to “prop up the status quo.”

Because “status quo” is a wet putty concept that means whatever people with conflicting views scheme it to mean to suit their aims, that adaptable abstraction is ideally fit for artificially unifying opposing camps. Very convenient.
