[NLA] "breaking news"

Re NRS:

Now I'm really confused!  

Does the discrepancy between numbers exist between state and national level 
figures?  Does the discrepancy exist between numbers last year and numbers 
this year?

Nancy Hansen is suggesting that low level learners head for the hills when 
faced with a test, is this born out by other AELS administrators?

In other words:

1)  Is there a real drop in numbers?
2)  Is there a problem in the paperwork requirement which results in low 
numbers actually being reported?
3)  Have ABE students' behavior changed, leading to swift program exit?
