8. If you're chasing children away, yes it does

Over the years, several children have left the school due to this particular teacher.

Children who hate school don't learn very effectively.

Staying home and reading on her own probably helped her test scores more in that class than anything the teacher did.

I'd like to think the Value Added system worked--I had high hopes for it.

But seeing these 2 teachers' rankings leaves no doubt in my mind that it's worthless.
