[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"The DC reformers absolutely thought that schools alone could and should make all the difference." "the focus on teachers as the only important factor in kids' education" Citations, please. I don't recall anyone ever saying that the schools were the ONLY change needed. I call BS on that.[/quote] “As a teacher in this system, you have to be willing to take personal responsibility for ensuring your children are successful despite obstacles…You can’t say, ‘My students didn’t get any breakfast today,’ or ‘No one put them to bed last night,’ or ‘Their electricity got cut off in the house, so they couldn’t do their homework.” http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200811/michelle-rhee ALso will look for a quote from Henderson saying she's just like rhee, except she's a "big black girl" and not a "petite asian" [/quote]
