Why We're Still 'At Risk'

OK, I swear I did more this break than just read posts and articles about education. But there is a lot in my e-mail inbox that I am now sorting through, and I can't help but post the ones I find interesting. This article was about some of the current assumptions in educational reform that are faulty. I really liked the explanation of assumptions 1-3 and thought they were relevant to us and our school. http://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/2009/04/22/29wolk_ep.h28.html?tkn=MY[FZNG6Vojb3JhdxssBnq%2BYp8q9lJUgnTak
