What's the story behind this quote from the article? Maryland has brandished the threat of a state takeover for more than a dozen years. Six years ago, state officials seized control of three low-performing elementary schools in Baltimore and hired Edison Schools Inc. to run them. Those schools have fared well on state reading and mathematics tests in recent years.
