State officials released new “performance reports” on every New Jersey public school today, saying the new categories for student growth, absenteeism, success in advanced courses and other measures will give parents more information than the report cards of the past.
State Education Commissioner Chris Cerf has made overhauling the reports a major project in his push to boost the number of students who finish high school ready for college and careers. Some superintendents, however, complained the new format contained too many errors and unfair comparisons among schools that were not truly “peers.”
