No Child Left Behind, The Rest of the Story
By nsbyrer @ 4:15 PM :: 2035 Views :: :: Education to Career |
On Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, July 18, 19 and 20, 2004, the Chicago Tribune devoted half its front page, plus full inside pages of the first section of the paper to a Special Report: No Child Left Behind. The focus of this series was on "One Girl's Struggle to find a Future". You may still be able to find this story in the archives of the on-line Chicago Tribune at http://www.chicagotribune.com It did a great job of drawing attention to the challenges faced by kids living in innercity neighborhoods.
However, it did not tell The Rest of the Story
Note: Visit the Education to Career Links section of the Tutor/Mentor Library to find ideas and resources to help your organization build its strategy for mentoring kids to careers.
