Hey Mike - great Stack, as usual!

for some reason the embedded videos in your content never show up for me -- they all say “sorry , video cannot be found”. Can you post the link for the Mike Guimarin video by chance ?

Thanks!

IDK a better way to imagine this, but schools that are created to be highly selective and high achieving need to be set up in something like a public trust with the people as trustee and kids the beneficiaries. The trusts would have clear rules that schools can only be restructured if they fall below a certain level of achievement or become financially out of whack. There is no excuse to leave the survival of these schools in the hands of any arbitrary administration that comes along. Decades of work undone in the blink of an eye for nothing but ideological reasons. Should be a crime.

Interesting approach and I like the protective features based on scoring vs. the 'whim of the day'
