Atlanta is the latest city to be exposed; perhaps the most famous is Washington DC, where Michelle Rhee made her mark as a tough leader, confronting teacher unions, insisting on high stakes testing. A dozen schools made incredible turn-arounds. Then it turned out that in most of those schools there were a whole lot of erasures on the answer sheets, and the erasures just about always went from a wrong answer to a right one. The statistical odds of that were lower than your odds of winning the Mega-Bucks lottery.
