Before Katrina, 60% of New Orleans students attended schools performing in the bottom 10% in the state...after, only 10% did. Why? They switched to charter operators. #ReinventingEd#nced
When students are underperforming, an excellent 5th grade curriculum does a 5th-grader no good. You have to meet students where they are. -@OsborneDavid#ReinventingEd#nced
In Denver, the strongest charter schools were replicated, and now in a city where 70 percent of kids get subsidized meals, students are outperforming their state average in middle school. #nced#ReinventingEd
N.C. doesn't have anyone enforcing rules in charter schools — that's why there are equity issues, like not offering special ed or transportation for students. -@OsborneDavid#ReinventingEd#nced
It took 60 years for the public school system to become the bureaucratic system it is today — we're about halfway in the transformation into the next education structure, @OsborneDavid says. #ReinventingEd#nced
