Re: “This Isn't the Charter You're Looking For”

the gates foundation, despite having a lot of money, used an unrecommended concept (schools within schools) for high school reform a few years back and then had to bail on a bunch of places chasing the dollars that came with buy in. the schools underwent painful restructuring and then gates said, "whoops. our bad. we thought educational research was b.s. so we ignored it, but those people turned out to be right." i think they've gotten smarter since that debacle, but i would be very hesitant to offer up a nashville school as another laboratory for an unproven concept.
