NPR Seattle schools story

[Peter Farruggio <pfarr@cal.berkeley.edu>]

This NPR story on 3 different schools may be a reflection of the 
growing disenchantment with NCLB.  NPR has been dubbed "Natl 
Petroleum Radio" since it adopted a conservative tilt after the 
Republican 1994 takeover of Congress.  Its "news" coverage has been 
little more than Republican Party and neoLiberal propaganda ever 
since.  This story is flat in that it offers no insight or critical 
analysis, but it does describe with a human touch how social class 
operates in schools and how the "extra" money given to poor schools 
just doesn't cut it
