So, Joel Klein’s ARIS system has finally been dumped by the new administration. That’s good news for everyone. Most teachers and parents don’t use ARIS, and there is no data to support that the $95 million was useful for anything.

ARIS was a giant waste of time. Parents don’t use it the way it was intended and, truth be told, neither do the teachers, but that’s because it’s so grossly out of date. The same thing with Acuity which, to my knowledge, has also disintegrated.
