A good start

11 Atlanta educators lose teaching certificates

[ajc] The Georgia Professional Standards Commission voted today to sanction the teaching certificates of 11 Atlanta educators accused of cheating by state investigators.
Of the 11, which were considered the some of the most severe cases, eight were teachers who received a two-year suspension, and three were administrators who had their certification permanently revoked.
The educators were not identified. They will be notified and have the chance to appeal the decision before it is final.
I hope they don't assume that teachers were all victims: Some of them were willing and enthusiastic co-conspirators, and deserve the same lifetime sanctions. I wonder if they're ever going to name names?
