KIPP promotes its success stories (which is fine) but never talks about their non-proficient status.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09229042262802354432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9025948832913694345.post-84337550391557812962012-11-29T20:07:44.330-08:002012-11-29T20:07:44.330-08:00You got this one down pat Duke (like usual).

The quotes in the press from the Camden BOE about Lanning Square are infuriating - voting for KIPP because they do not believe there will ever be the funds to build Lanning Square?! What a self- fulfilling prophecy. They refused, when Moneke and others demanded, to file lawsuit to compel the release of SDA funds to build Lanning Square public school. So now parents have filed a lawsuit to get that school built. And most of the board undermines that by voting for KIPP. While Camden fights we need to support -pass the legislation to strengthen OPMA to get complete agendas as a start. And we have to realize that their fight is our fight. <br /><br />The real question is how did that first vote - the tied 4-4 - happen at all? What seed of insurgence was planted? Something happened that yes, has been undone, but something happened and it can happen again. Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01003814941132010913noreply@blogger.com
