34 <br /> Commissioner Hamilton said it is important to be careful in how the statistics and data <br /> are reviewed. She said it is very important to understand what is behind the numbers, and the <br /> reasons for them, if change is going to be made. She said she has done research as a career, <br /> and numbers and data have limits; for example, some students do not test well. She said there <br /> must be narrative to accompany the numbers. She said opportunities are missed if real life <br /> situations are not considered in favor of just looking at numbers. She said CHCCS is a <br /> community with high achieving students next to lower performing students, which often <br /> increases tension. <br /> b.
