I think it'd be useful for parents to know kind of what is the culture of an institution.

I think all kinds of parents are different in what they're seeking.

And I think that's righteous, I think that's what parents want to know. They want to know what's going right in the school, and what needs improvement, and that's what this law does.

And I think that we in America need to understand that many schools need improvement, and particularly with respect to how they're serving minority children.

There's lots of institutions and lots of different cultures, and so that's the kind of thing that parents need to be able to evaluate, and students themselves, when they make a selection.

I do think we know that a teacher who knows what he or she is doing, knows their subject matter, and knows how to impart knowledge to kids is a critical piece of closing the achievement gap.
