Cara Fitzpatrick from the Sun-Sentinel in Fort Lauderdale recently wrote an article on Parents Finding Schools Unfriendly.
The great thing was that the Broward Public Schools were hosting a forum to listen to what parents have to say.
The first two steps in addressing the problem with public schools are to acknowledge the problem and then listen.
Parents then responded by saying positive things about their schools, which is awesome.
Kudos to Cara Fitzpatrick, the Broward County School Board and the parents who speak up -- about their schools strengths and challenges
Re-inventing public schools will require a massive effort, and this is a great start. I will be at the forum and hope to see many others there too.
