Education Reform Distractions - The Miseducation of Cities
Public charter vs. traditional public schools, local communities vs. outside reformers, black vs. white. There are many distractions and red herrings in discussions about education reform.
My guest, Dr. Andre Perry, has put many of those distractions on the table in his fascinating novel, The Garden Path: The Miseducation of a City. The novel is set in post-Katrina New Orleans, which has become a key education reform battleground. In Dr. Perry's take, the students prevail over all else. As the former CEO of a charter school network in New Orleans and a university professor there, Dr. Perry crafted The Garden Path on a solid foundation of personal experience.
Host, Allison R. Brown, is a civil rights attorney and President of Allison Brown Consulting (ABC).

Special Education Inclusion
Inclusion remains a controversial concept in education because it relates to educational and social values, as well as to our sense of individual worth. Dr. Annie Abram will discuss special education inclusion with Mary Ulrich, who holds a Masters and Doctorate in Early Childhood and Special Education.
Mary E. Ulrich didn’t know anything about people with severe disabilities until her son Aaron was born. Fortunately, a new law (now called IDEA) had just been passed and Mary, Aaron and a whole group of parents, professionals and citizens used every ounce of power of the law to get Aaron and others into public schools and included in their communities.
