Was I the only one to see the data manipulation in the article. Wasn't hard to see it, so why didn't Mckiernan catch it during her interview and question it. The 2015 retention graphic began in July and ended in December. What the other months don't matter? Unbelievable, but characteristic of the dissemination of district information and the lack of depth of reporting the facts. Shameful.

Turns out that the secret hidden data is publicly posted:
Retention:
NBPS 2009: 86.8 Fall River 80.6
NBPS 2010: 88.5 Fall River 80.9
NBPS 2011: 90.9 Fall River 84
NBPS 2012: 88.8 Fall River 82
NBPS 2013: 90 Fall River 80.5
NBPS 2014: 84.2 Fall River 77

GLCPS and Fairhaven 80.s or below also.
Do they know they have a "Mass exodus?"
