Adequate Yearly Progress by Roxanna Elden

2.0

I feel like this book written in satire just tried to put too many issues in one place. Was the author trying to address race issues? If she was, it was too glib. Why Nex Level? What was the point of that story line at all? I just didn’t see it was necessary and the main character didn’t “evolve” bc of it. It seemed that also was kind of a dumb thing to have an argument about and never talk again. But she was hung up on him? Really? As a teacher, I see and appreciate the ridiculousness of data driven decisions and all of the other issues teachers are directed to deal with. That is why this got a 2* instead of 1*. I pretty much drug through the book bc my friend wanted me to read it. It missed the mark all around for me.
