Learning Matters; worth checking out

Thanks go out to Andy Davis for sharing the Learning Matters website with me. LM is a non-profit production company focused on education which produces programs for the NewsHour and documentaries for PBS. The site also includes a blog by John Merrow, LM president and executive producer. His most recent post talks about the new contract in DCPS and the broader impact it may have, as well as changes in the Detroit Public Schools system. The changes are being pushed by none other than Robert Bobb, whom you may remember as the president of the DC School Board and former Deputy Mayor of DC under Anthony Williams. He is now the Emergency Financial Manager at DPS. Small world!
