Reblogged from Diane Ravitch's blog:
The new Broad leader in Dallas has hired a communications director and a PR team to craft a list of "power words" and "power phrases" that teachers and principals are supposed to use when communicating with the public.
Dallas principals and teachers: Please take care to say what you are told. Memorize your lines. If you say the wrong thing, you are in trouble.
Thank goodness this all is behind us.
