CLOSING THE ACHIEVEMENT GAP
Wednesday, August 25, 2004 10 - 11:00 pm
Join Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Clarence Page as he tells
the story of Amistad Academy, a charter school founded in 1999.
Its goal? To close the persistent and dramatic achievement gap
between minority students and white students in America's
public school system. See how Amistad did it. And, more
important, how other public schools can do it, too. (CC, Stereo)
