Abstract | Teaching all students to high standards may not be achievable with the way the vast bulk of schools in the United States are organized and managed. Under current school structures and management practices, marginal improvements are possible; significantly raising student achievement is not. Accomplishing this requires dramatic improvements that involve adopting powerful, high-performance school designs, for example, those offered by New American Schools. This paper focuses specifically on one aspect of this challenge: determining the cost of each New American Schools design and how to pay for it. It covers rethinking funding for reform, and demonstrates why the New American Schools designs are affordable for most schools. (Contains 21 references.) (DFR) |
