Nobody argues against the need for high quality teachers in our public schools. But the consensus starts to splinter when it comes to how to identify and evaluate them.

Guests: Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson, Peter Raskind, former interim CEO of Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD) and CMSD students Rachel Woods, Martina Andrews and Doneisha King.
Special thanks to Sharon Broussard, Cleveland Plain Dealer; Doug LeMov, Uncommon Schools and Elizabeth Green, Gotham Schools.
