Past, present, or…

1/30/17: Children represent 23% of the present U.S. population and 100% of our collective future.

1-29-17: “We can, whenever and wherever we choose, successfully teach all children whose schooling is of interest to us. We already know more than we need to do that. Whether or not we do it must finally depend on how we feel about the fact we haven’t so far.”

– Ronald Edmonds (May 24, 1935- July 15, 1983)

Opportunities abound

12-28-16: At its Oct. 25 meeting the CMS Board of Education approved a bunch of construction contracts, mostly for heating and air conditioning work. They are listed here in descending order of percentage participation by minority, women and small business enterprises.

34.74% Providence High HVAC Controls
1.5% Harding High chiller
0% Cornelius Elementary chiller
0% J.T. Williams HVAC controls
0% Myers Park High chiller
0% Pawtucket Elementary roof

Is there anything wrong with this picture?

Break the cycle

8-21-15: Who gets the leg up from pre-K programs? In 2013 about half of the children of adults with graduate or professional degrees were enrolled. But only about a quarter of the children of adults with less than a high school education were enrolled. Let’s break the cycle right there! Data from The Condition of Education 2015.

Thanks
