I thought it very interesting when the article stated "Beyond grafting the one-size-fits-all urban reform agenda upon all schools and super-heated reform rhetoric, it is both a moral and operational imperative to improve urban schools. But not by mistakenly repeating the rhetoric or acting as if all schools are broken." School are not one size fits all nor are the students they serve!
I also love that they pointed out that "policymakers do not know how to school, much less educate, low-income children that enter public schools." Their reforms serve one type of student and its often not the one who needs help the most.
We need to start treating people like people. Then we can build schools and students which make us better off and maybe even make the world a little better.
