Pre-School

I'm looking forward to the rest of this series. I wonder, though, if it will change any of the minds in Madison who don't see pre-school as one of the keys to making education better in poor areas. Short of making poverty itself disappear, high-quality early-childhood education is one of the best things we can do.

On the other hand, the kids in the accompanying story remind me too much of my high school students. I don't relish wating ten years to see the benefits . . .
