[ZeroHedge] The nation's fourth most funded school system has a grade rigging scandal and now a cover-up. There are mounting calls for Maryland Governor Wes Moore and the State Board of Education to remove Maryland State Superintendent Mohammed Choudhury for a Maryland Public Information Act violation.
Investigative journalist Chris Papst from Fox45 News' Project Baltimore published a damning report (read: here) on Feb. 6 about how 23 Baltimore City Schools, with zero students, among those tested, scored proficient on the state math exam. The story went viral, forcing the state to cover up the education blunder.
In a public records request, Papst's team found metadata for 98 text messages sent or received by Superintendent Choudhury in the first quarter of this year -- around the time the state changed the grades that no longer can be seen. |
