We have reached the end of our unique series about school reform with nationally known school reformer, Whitney Tilson. Today, in an expanded broadcast, we conclude with Mr. Tilson’s estimate of what it will take to bring the nation’s educational system back from the brink and avoid our slipping catastrophically behind our foreign competitors. Later, his schedule permitting, we will have one more interview with Mr. Tilson so that he can answer your questions. And, if you do have questions for him or comments about the show, his views or the plight of the American educational system, please send them to us at the email address listed above. We want to hear from you.
In prior broadcasts, Mr. Tilson explained what the two Achievement Gaps facing school systems throughout the United States are and why it is so important that the educational community within our country overcome therm. He laid out a strong case about how we, as a nation, are failing our children and discriminating against a vast number of them. More importantly, he explains, as has the Equity Center in the past, why this disaster damages not only the children being deprived of a satisfactory education but the totality of all states and communities. Now, he closes these in-depth interviews with some ideas about how we can turn things around and end the plight.
