Position Papers
Where Teachers Educate Their Own Children
Teachers are the proverbial canary in the coal mine, exiting public education in higher percentages than the rest of the population. What do they know most of us don't?
High Schools Are Sinking
We must break our addiction to the "tranquilizing drug of gradualism." Why fundamental change in the structure of high school is essential.
A Choice for Our Children
We need to attract more students to math, science, and engineering. The proposed charter high school with internships, project based learning, and increased flexibility is part of the answer.
