We here at the Gradebook have always liked to think that we provide you a top-notch education report. It's nice to get some validation from outside experts, though.
Education Sector's Eduwonk, considered one of the more credible and serious education blogs in the country, has singled out our site as one of three nationally that's among the best. We're all just proud of the mention and pleased to bring you news.
Check out their post here, and ignore our blushing.


Get inside the world of Florida education with St. Petersburg Times staff writer Jeffrey S. Solochek and the rest of the Times education reporting team. We'll bring you up-to-date information about the latest education trends, fads and news and dig deep into Tampa Bay area school issues.
Congratulations! You deserve the recognition!

A well deserved recognition for a hard working staff. Kudos to Jeff and his crew. You deserve way more than you get.
Can you use some retired teachers on you staff?

Yes, you guys do a pretty good job. Perhaps this is or is not the place to comment on this topic but, here goes. Every time an educator, teacher, administrator, aide, coach, bus driver or whatever is busted for a moral wrong doing the newspaper leads with the headline, "Teacher is busted." Nearly every time a non-educator is "busted" the job or profession is left out of the entire article. For instance, are all of the people in Clearwater perverts because this one guy solicited sex from a minor on the computer? This is one of the double standards that educators are held to that "normal" citizens do not have to live with. I understand the standards that educators need to be held to but, what about the rest of society?
