[quote=Anonymous][quote]After all, today’s school reform agenda was crafted with the troubles of the inner-city in mind. It focuses on ensuring that low-income and minority children who had been “left behind” would master essential skills and graduate high school. The overriding mission has been to take dysfunctional schools and make them functional. The goal is admirable. However, the diagnosis and remedies are configured for a particular set of schools and students. [/quote] And, once more, it may be "designed" to help the inner city--but it is not the right way to do it. I've been there. These standards -at least in the early years-will harm the inner city kids the most.[/quote]
