Academy of Lithonia: Give it a Read
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
I would appreciate anyone who has the time to read this story about the Academy of Lithonia charter school’s feud with the state and DeKalb County. I welcome feedback on any story, but on this one in particular, I’m interested in what Get Schooled readers think about the situation.
Friday Book Giveaway: I have “Straight Talk about Reading” by Susan L. Hall and Louisa C. Moats and a 1998 book by Jay Mathews called “Class Struggle,” which is about his now rather famous formula of ranking high schools based on percent of kids in A.P. courses. Shoot me an e-mail at pghezzi@ajc.com and let me know which book you want. First come, first served.
Have a safe weekend, everybody!
