Ford Foundation K-12 Links (Winter Report)

Several interesting items from the Ford Foundation's Winter 2005 K-12 Report:

• Dallas public schools are boosting student achievement by integrating arts into the curriculum.
• In West Virginia and across the country, rural communities are fighting the supersizing of public schools.
• BOOK REVIEW: School Champion
  A consensus has grown over the last 20 years that for sustainable school reform to occur, the public?not just parents?must be engaged, as instigators of change and as watchdogs to ensure that reforms are put into practice.

Another interesting link: The Prichard Committee for Academic Excellence is a statewide education advocacy organization. We work to improve education for all Kentuckians.
