Modern schools need modern solutions
“School Board Should Break Some Glass” (01/14/26) by Tom Decosimo raises important points.
Since he mentions concern for children being malnourished, do we anticipate that he will press Gov. Lee to change his mind on the federal government summer program ($84 million) for food aid?
Considering there is documented evidence that public school students outperform voucher recipients, is it time to “break glass” dealing with the state’s voucher program?
He suggests that we should study schools from 100+ years ago. I have done so. As historian Jonathan Zimmerman notes, “For every memoir praising the one-room school, and praising the education it provided, a corresponding account describes boredom, frustration, and terror.”
