Race To The Top And Other Horrors Of The Reform Agenda

I am not going to give a list of finalists for the RTTT nonsense because it turns my stomach.

I also don't want to hear from any more TFA grads that they are committed to education.

Nor do I want to hear from Arne Duncan about how poverty is going to be ignored by this administration.

I don't want to see public schools turned into marketplaces either, especially for those inclined to call themselves "Education Entrepreneurs."

Poverty is the disease.  Public schools do not have the cure; they are a symptom.
