  • Teacher Pay Is So Low in Some U.S. School Districts That They're Recruiting Overseas

    May 4, 2018

    GLENDALE, Ariz. — The latest wave of foreign workers sweeping into American jobs brought Donato Soberano from the Philippines to Arizona two years ago. He had to pay thousands of dollars to a job broker and lived for a time in an apartment with five other Filipino workers. The lure is the pay — 10 times more than what he made doing the same work back home. But Mr. Soberano is not a hospitality worker or a home health aide. He is in another line of work that increasingly pays too little to attract enough Americans: Mr. Soberano is a public sch...

The study, published in Nature Human Behaviour, found that sending parents mail multiple times over a school year i...

  • Assuring Needy Groups of Students Aren't Overlooked

    May 4, 2018

    The school improvement debate is often centered on the lowest-performing schools, where the entire ship needs to be steered in a new direction. But even schools that are high performing or above average and not consistently subjected to the spotlight have blind spots that need to be addressed, whether they be tackling gaps in test scores, graduation rates, participation in SAT or Advanced Placement courses, or absenteeism. https://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/2016/09/28/assuring-needy-groups-of-students-arent-overlooked.html?c...
