Annapolis High School: A Work In Progress

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=128352491&ft=1&f=100

"Long before the Obama administration started talking about turning around failing schools, Annapolis High School in Maryland embarked on a radical transformation. It went to a 12-month school year. Teachers and administrators had to re-apply for their jobs, and those who were rehired vowed to never again let a single student fall through the cracks."

This is an interview - many of the same questions are asked about how to transform education - I just hope the topic becomes an actual discussion instead of a misunderstood headline where people do not understand the information but instead throw out biased words to polarize the issue -
