Soon to be released

Gatto's book "Weapons of Mass Instruction" seems to paint a gloomy picture of public education in this country. The book is not out yet, but will be released soon.

I always wonder how the same types of arguments surrounding public eduction hold up in the private school setting? Other than smaller class sizes and more flexibility around curriculum, most independent schools rarely practice their independence. When the very structure of education is questioned, I feel that only a very few schools can say that does not apply to us.

The reviews of this book remind me of the Pink Floyd song - "Another Brick in the Wall"
