Some critics suggest the good results KIPP has partially is the result of convincing underperforming students to leave before the testing season. <br /><br />KIPP is very good at finding corporate/biz community support. Their per pupil spending often is as much as 25% higher than public schools in the same community.<br /><br />While supporters point to KIPP as an example of money not producing better results, the real KIPP story is that money DOES produce better results. And recruiting an elite cadre of teachers and staff with a missionary zeal for teaching.<br /><br />But increasing ed budgets by one-quarter and finding hundreds of thousands of teachers willing to work 100 hours a week is an unlikely national education model.Richard https://www.blogger.com/profile/10413132537979791787noreply@blogger.com
