The funny thing about facts is they don't lie. While Deval Patrick is running around telling the voters the sky is falling regarding education, the facts bear out something completely different. In the three years of the Romney-Healey adminstration the Commonwealth has gone from Ranked 7th in 02-03, before they were elected, to first twice and third once, according to Morgan Quitno rankings. The 06-07 rankings come out on October 10, 2006.

This compounded with rising SAT scores shows that the Healey model of accountability and the focus on measuring students and holding them to standards is working.
