an interesting and thought provoking article.
it seems to me, whether it's on education or race or other topics, that too many are too afraid to have a discussion. are we afraid of what we might unearth? or do we think we can't do better, or don't want to change? we have been doing certain things to try to improve our education, yet they don't seem to make a difference. more standardized tests when the ones we have now aren't showing much progress isn't the answer.
very intriguing idea, no private schools. boy, there'd be serious changes made if that were to occur here!!!!
