[Assam] IHT.com Article: For these New York City tots, only limos will do
This IHT.com article has been sent to you by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] some might see that pre-school education is nothing to be laughed at. I read some years back (in Times of India) that some CEO got his company to donate one million dollars so that his own children could attend such a school in New York. Umesh -- For these New York City tots, only limos will do By Eric Konigsberg The New York Times Thursday, January 25, 2007 The cars gather in front of the 92nd Street YMCA in Manhattan about 8:30 a.m. In the front seats sit hired drivers (nobody uses the term chauffeur anymore). The cars are mostly big and mostly black luxury-edition sport utility vehicles like the Mercedes GL-Class or the GMC Yukon Denali. They fill the lanes in front of the Y's entrance on Lexington Avenue, often two or three rows deep. It looks like the outside of an arbitrage house just before trading hours, or perhaps the Knicks' private entrance to Madison Square Garden on game day. Until, that is, the drivers open the back-seat doors and the passengers' feet emerge. These are not the feet of profit-takers or NBA players. These feet wear Sonnet Maryjanes and Primigi sneakers with Velcro closure straps. These feet are only a half-foot long. The children — ages 3 through 5 — are enrolled at the Y's famous nursery school. The livery convention on Lexington Avenue occurs most every weekday. Neighbors of the Y and parents with children in the nursery school say they have seen the number of cars and drivers increase considerably over the past couple of years. In exasperation, the director of the school, Nancy Schulman, drafted a letter to all families insisting that the drivers wait somewhere else while parents or baby sitters take the children in: Find a legal parking space, or take their cars for a few spins around the block. In the letter, which parents received once in the spring of 2006 and twice this school year, Schulman played perhaps the only bargaining chip she has, stating that failure to observe this rule could hinder their children's chances of getting into the kindergarten of their choice. The letter said that idling cars posed a safety risk, several parents said, and reminded families that one assessment Schulman and her colleagues are asked to make by lower-school admissions officers is whether the applicant's parents have been cooperative with the school's requests. The letter said, 'When the ongoing schools ask about your cooperation, I will have no choice but to tell them the truth,' one parent said. Alix Friedman, a spokeswoman for the school, confirmed the contents of the letter, saying: Our main concern is the safety and welfare of the children who are being dropped off. We don't want the child to have to walk through two or three lanes of cars. Some parents applauded the action. Personally, I think it's great of the Y to do that, said one mother who takes her child to school by taxi. The thing with this place and drivers, it's revolting. But, obviously, it hasn't had any effect. She nodded toward the morning's big black car traffic jam. Like most parents contacted for this article, this mother insisted on anonymity — not, she said, because she had concerns about offending nursery school administrators (My child has already gotten into Dalton) or her fellow parents, but because, as she put it, What good would it do me? The Y is hardly the only school in the neighborhood where children get to school by car and driver. Dropoff hour at Nightingale-Bamford, on 92nd Street between Madison and Fifth Avenues, and at Dalton's lower school, on 91st between Park and Madison, is often clogged by chauffeured SUVs. Dalton's chief financial officer, Ned Pinger, stands outside every morning to greet students, which often involves opening doors and helping them out of the back seat. The heads of elementary schools are often outside doing this, and it becomes a little ridiculous, said Sandra Bass, who publishes Private School Insider, a newsletter for New York parents. You can't tell who the master is in this situation. Myrna Weiss, a former member of the Y's board of directors and a grandparent of a child at the nursery school, interpreted the use of chauffeurs as a way for parents to protect their children door to door. She added: It's also about one-upmanship. That game used to be played much more quietly, over what clubs the parents had their children's birthday parties at. There weren't such visible signs of a pecking order. Over the course of four mornings this winter, at least 22 chauffeured SUVs were seen, most of them repeatedly, waiting in front of the school while parents brought in their children. Most of the cars belonged to families who live between Lexington and Fifth Avenues and 70th to 86th Streets. Subsequent research found that an overwhelming majority of the fathers in these families earn a

Promoting a Management Revolution in Public Education http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/5403.html Public school districts are difficult to lead and manage, and the idea of applying business principles to school reform is popular. But is it practical? This paper describes the work of Harvard's Public Education Leadership Program as it helps school districts grapple with performance challenges, including student achievement that compares unfavorably with other countries, and a significant performance gap between white and minority students. Complicating the picture: The concept of managing for accountability is new in education. The authors studied the effects of improved management on public school student performance by comparing fifteen large urban school districts with similar peer districts.

I can relate to her becos I teach in Silver Spring, Maryland too- to students of similar demographics. The children themselves have mood swings - a few openly declared to the school authorities yesterday in their annula survey that they did not like the teacher and the program -thats me. a few others wrote in support of me in the survey. I had planned to give them chocolates at the end of the class - and lo today those very ones were singing praises and fighting for me - against those who were at fault today and angry with my censure. Even among all the SES After School students I think mine are the most challenging - the last teacher was really fired - an unprecedented step by top management - becos she was always partying with tem and teaching little. The children have fond memories of her though - and never hesistate to mention how good she was - and how mean I am (mostly after someone has had to change a card for incorrect behavior).Change is difficult also becos those whom have to change don;t like change either.
