Ok, I've worked in the school district for six years and there is some real craziness going on. There are seniors who have three credits and are totally clueless as to how that happened. There are seniors who have straight A's who can't pass one or more of the proficiencies and kids who have passed all of their proficiencies who are flunking all of their classes. There are kids who have passed their proficiencies in other states who then have to take Nevada's and are unable to pass. There are plenty of states that don't require proficiencies and there is homeschooling where you can get around it if you're not trying to get the M scholarship (which by the way can only be used in Nevada and can only be accessed at $2500 a year for four years, not in one lump). It's Nevada's dirty little secret and it's all a bigger mess that one would think and the devil is in the details. Give me that $250K salary and I'll be happy to turn it all around:-)
