[UTLAguy]

This woman is a paid shill for billionaires trying to privatize public education---to turn over billions of dollars of public school money/institutions to private entities. Her so-called "studies" are worthless. She has refused to allow any outside party or entity to examine her study---its methodology, data, etc. Even after repeated requests, she still has not... to this day... ever allowed any peer review of her study. The bogus study shown here was ordered by her financial backers.
