Most school leaders are concerned with meeting the benchmarks required by the state; conversely, there are some who do wish to be forward thinking. These statements allow leaders the privilege of change and compliance not being mutually exclusive. To be fair, I believe worthwhile campus and district leaders would find this to be an emotional relief. Kids no longer have to be beholden to a factory system of education; as is so often criticized. Instead, leader can be compliant, progressive, and acting in the best interest of scholars. Embracing this (why statement and subsequent change) is a solid win for everyone.
