"It is common knowledge that across the nation, students are struggling. Public-school reform has become so commonplace it barely has meaning anymore. What school system is not in the process of trying to improve? To say that technology has improved the way we communicate and do business is an understatement, when in fact technology has transformed our personal lives and created a global economy. Therefore, if the entire world is undergoing a technological transformation, why are we still talking about education reform? Now is the time to stop thinking about how to improve the old ways of providing education and start thinking about transforming public education into something new.
The Houston Independent School District is doing just that. We have been calling it a reform effort, but what we are doing is transforming public education. According to legislators in Washington, D.C., and national organizations that advocate for public schools, Houston is leading the way."
