Quote of the Day

Andy Smarick, former Deputy Commissioner for NJ’s Department of Education, has a new book out today called “The Urban School System of the Future.” From the book:

I have equal affection for great traditional public schools, great charter public schools, and great private schools. I am equally opposed to the low performers from each sector.

For the sake of disadvantaged kids, I care about school quality, not school operator.
