| CURMUDGUCATION: Arne Blows Some Smoke at the PTA; Diane Ravitch says about this piece by Greene: "Peter Greene proves himself a man of infinite patience.

I'm pretty sure we can make it a drinking game; every time Arne says something that would make a great basis for educational policy, but US DOE actually does the opposite--drink! Do I need to point out that Arne's kids attend a school that remains untouched by the policies that are being inflicted on the rest of us?" |
