According to Geoffrey Canada the American school system is broken when it comes to teaching children in inner-city schools, and most people wouldn’t disagree with him. But Canada’s inspiring approach to fixing the problem is something that no one before him had tried a complete overhaul of the social infrastructure. Canada created a “Conveyor belt” in a Harlem neighborhood that touches the lives of children and their families from birth through college.

Canada shows us that sometimes you have to take a radical approach.

QUESTONS:

What if Florida reversed the amount of money it spent on juvenile incarceration rates with the amount it spends on each child in the educational school system?

What if Florida gave teachers the national average of resources per student?

Is a shorter school day the answer to our educational problems? Is there another option?
