We may not know who is most responsible for educating the student ... but we do know who draws a paycheck for the task of educating the student, right?

So it doesn’t seem outlandish to me to use student test performance to evaluate the person acquiring wealth from educating students.
Its not outlandish. Never said a test was. It can be used as one metric. Maybe one among 5-6 would be reasonable. But only if they were all genuinely being used and not simply one.
Well, Seattle thinks it’s outlandish to evaluate teachers based on student performance. But Seattle thinks a lot of crazy shot.

Countless millions of dead native Americans dispute NBC's claim that migrants don't spread disease.

In fact, the entirety of human history refutes it.

But whatever, can't let obvious facts get in the way of advancing ones socio-political dogma.

Although it is impossible to quantify with any certainty the impact of European contact on New World populations, estimates of the pre-contact population of the Americas have ranged from 8 to 30 million. Between 1492 and 1650 the Native American population may have declined by as much as 90% as the result of virgin-soil epidemics (outbreaks among populations that have not previously encountered the disease), compound epidemics, crop failures and food shortages.

Stephen Curry said the moon landing was faked, but let's all pretend he didn't

:lol:
Media is working overtime to cover for Steph Curry, why ? Because he's a rabid Never Trumper, and we can't have the idiots opposing Trump being seen as loons.

That is weird for sure, but many many pro athletes have said far stranger stuff. Remember Royce White?
