What’s the biggest challenge facing schools?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The Professional Association of Georgia Educators held its summer conference over the weekend. This year’s theme involved making sure all students succeed at a time when classrooms are becoming more diverse.

NOTE: Official CRCT results for all districts and public schools are here. The results differ little from the preliminary results we’ve had on ajc.com for about a week, but check out how othere schools in the state did.
