I read with interest Dr. Richard L. Allington's recent guest op-ed in Friday's Tennessean. His perspective is a great one, and we need more voices like his in the state as we work to improve Tennessee's schools. In his op-ed, Allington mentions our Tennessee SCORE interim report and some of the more troubling numbers about Tennessee's schools, particularly the number of students underperforming in reading. He goes on to say "[i]mproving the quality of the reading instruction schools offer will raise reading achievement. But both the state and SCORE have seemed to ignore this fact."

While I agree with most of Dr. Allington's points, I have to disagree with his assessment that SCORE's interim report ignores the importance of quality reading instruction. Specifically, our interim report highlights five areas where the state could improve its education system. First among these areas is ensuring we better support teachers and school leaders as they work to implement the Tennessee Diploma Project, which will raise high school graduation standards and ensure that students learn to read in the early grades. Our report also notes that the state must continue to focus on producing and supporting highly effective teachers, which are critical to improving our state's performance in all subject areas, including reading.

I encourage all those who are interested in helping improve Tennessee's schools to visit our Web site, www.tennesseescore.org, and download a copy of our report. If we all work together, Tennessee's education system can become the best in the Southeast over the next five to ten years.
