There's a great column in today's Times about a woman, a relatively small reading program, and a government that didn't play by its own rules.
She had developed a phonics program, precisely what the administration required, it had been very successful, but they never even looked at it. Only large textbook publishers were called to the table. However, she followed up and things are looking different now.
It's inspiring to see stories like this in America today.
