I'd also add that it would be wiser to invest in getting rid of the mismanagement, corruption, nepotism, cronyism in the nation's largest public school districts before going full speed with this farce of "education reform" by the corporatists who are only salivating for the goods, products, services, etc. Don't think it's not there? One can do a number of things to come to that conclusion: You can read Lydia G. Segal's pivotal work, "Battling Corruption in America's Public Schools"; pour through the R.I.C.O. investigation indictment that recently went down in Atlanta, Georgia that brought down administrators and educators alike and demonstrated that it was more than just a "cheating scandal" -- the mantra the media keeps reporting and readers keep repeating; or, in Chicago, read Chicago Public Schools Inspector General Sullivan's most recent yearly report which has him stating that "The cases reported this year are especially important because the results show that fraud is being committed by high-level and highly paid CPS administrators and that the lucrative federal and state benefits tied to the forms drives the fraud," as cited by the Chicago Tribune. You can also read this essay that gives you a pretty comprehensive idea of what the nation's third largest public schools district challenges are really being faced: http://www.scribd.com/doc/106337306/THE-CHICAGO-PUBLIC-SCHOOLS-ALLERGIC-TO-ACTIVISMLuis Gabriel Aguilerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17776914425711379256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6304900740955463233.post-5822753478381356832013-06-07T21:40:47.198-07:002013-06-07T21:40:47.198-07:00Wonderful blog & good post.Its really helpful ...Wonderful blog & good post.Its really helpful for me, awaiting for more new post.
