I’ve lived in a diverse, inner-city Milwaukee neighborhood for over 30 years and want to say that my neighbors and I, of all colors/cultures, are deeply concerned about the way the education available to students dependent on public schools is increasing NOT getting the job done. Maybe it is good that COVID has focused attention on the seriousness of the situation. Our kids can do great things if properly challenged and supported; some of our public schools do this but it is critical that they ALL do so — the world’s future literally depends upon it.
