This recent article from the Associated Press piqued my interest.
It seems Waterbury Public Schools, along with other Connecticut school districts, is doing something radical: Teachers and parents will be participating with each other in the management of the schools!
I have to say, I’m confused, confounded and amazed all at once. I guess I figured they had been doing this all along. In Forum-land, two heads are generally better than one and people are happier and more productive when they get to participate in the decision making.
Would it be crazy of me to suggest they talk to the kids too? OK…maybe that’s going too far.
On a slightly more inspirational note… let's hear it for this amazing kid!
