Document Summary
Thinking of school within a broad context of policing and social context. Trying new things to improve bad schools across various districts facilities as white and gives them access to the same resources between black and white students by half together in same school) But bad schools never caught up (black and latino) vs good school (white) at start the achievement gap was about 40 points but dropped to just 18 by the end. Michael brown got shot by police (high profile case in us) Focus on literacy or improve teacher quality could take these conversations. One thing that really worked that cut achievement gap. )t"s the one thing we don"t talk about integration (black and white kids. Stats show between 71 (massive desegregation) to 88 (peak of integration) . It is not something magical happening when black kids sit in same classroom as white kids integration gets black kids in same.
