TEAM in The Economist
By admin on April 23rd, 2009
The Economist’s education correspondent recently visited TEAM Charter Schools to learn about and report on examples of innovation in US education. Read the reflections from her week here. While she was anxious about her Thursday visit with TEAM — “I’m actually a bit nervous. KIPP has a fearsome and to my mind not entirely attractive reputation in England for a zero-tolerance approach to discipline…” — her fears were easily and readily dispelled. She says about TEAM, “…I cannot remember when my expectations and reality last clashed so much: the day turns out to be the most fun I’ve ever had visiting schools.”
