How, And How Much, Do Schools Matter?

On Friday, November 5, the Progressive Policy Institute is hosting a luncheon debate featuring Richard Rothstein of Columbia University and author of Class and Schools: Using Social, Economic, and Educational Reform to Close the Black-White Achievement Gap and Ross Weiner, Policy Director for the Education Trust. Jay Mathews of The Washington Post will moderate.

It’s a great chance to hear two influential policy analysts discuss and debate important questions about just what we can, and cannot expect from schools and how, accordingly, policymakers should proceed. It’s from Noon – 2PM at PPI’s offices in Washington.
