AMERICA'S FAILING STUDENTS: SCHOOL OR SOCIETY? |
From the article:
Sadly, don't expect those large and in charge to listen, much less respond to this question...
...not when their deep-pocket supporters are raking in untold profits from "education reform" hand over fist.
Their only response to public schools and teachers, from fists tightly clutching their blood money...
...will be an extension of the middle finger.
From The New York Times
Awareness that America’s educational deficits are driven to a large degree by socioeconomic disadvantage might move the policy debate, today so firmly anchored in a “schools fail” mode. It offers up a new question: Is it reasonable to ask public schools to fix societal problems that start holding disadvantaged children back before they are conceived?
