A Deeper Look at EdChoice

Charlie Irish is a long-time friend whom I often quote on my blogs.  I do so because he is a thoughtful educational leader who looks for the deeper meaning in major issues impacting our public schools and the communities they serve.  His most recent insight involves the connection between the controversial expansion of EdChoice and a newly published book, Learning How to Hope, written by one our colleagues, Sarah Stitzlein.  In a piece which now appears on the website of the Ohio Public School Advocacy Network, Charlie takes a deeper look at EdChoice.  In it, he asserts that “the struggle EdChoice has precipitated is about more than just money (though the amount at stake is huge).  It is about how we will exercise our hope in the future.”
