It was reported in March, 2011 that there was a testing scandal while Michelle Rhee was serving as Chancellor of Washington, D.C. schools. This cheating was manifested by an inordinate amount of erasures on standardized tests. While similar scandals in other cities resulted in the vigorous investigation and prosecution of the superintendents, administrators, and teachers involved, there has been no investigation of Michelle Rhee's administration in the federally-run city. Others have been convicted and imprisoned; corporate reformers are protecting Rhee. Therefore, I am calling for a federal investigation of this scandal, beginning with Rhee's role in this cheating scandal.
