Did anyone catch an Oprah show (It was on on the room) about 2 weeks ago with Clinton (bill) and Andre Agassi?
The show was on Clinton's book "Giving" and featured Andre Agassi and "his" charter school in Los Vegas. While the Charter School was praised by Andre and Oprah and looks real modern with a bridge between buildings etc etc. there's more to it then the building, the money and the ideas - it's commitment. Some kids do great, others have problems. Curious as I was, I looked up the school on the Internet. The school as it turns out has problems with teacher turnover, admin policies and more. But - it is an alternative for education. What I did catch Agassi say is that in this school - the cost PER KID is $5700 (I believe that was the number) to educate. http://www.agassiprep.org/about.html You know what I say - pack it up.
