On this week’s Education Gadfly Show podcast (listen on Apple Podcasts and Spotify), Erica Green, national education reporter at the New York Times, joins Mike Petrilli and David Griffith to discuss schools’ struggle to support teens’ mental health and respond to increasing misbehavior. Then, on the Research Minute, Amber Northern examines a study on whether improving access to dual-enrollment courses raises participation.

  • Mike Petrilli’s thoughts on the federal response to this issue in The Dispatch: “Now Is Not the Time to Meddle in School Disciplinary Policy”
  • Fordham’s 2019 teacher survey on discipline policies: Discipline Reform through the Eyes of Teachers
  • The study that Amber reviewed on the Research Minute: Steven W. Hemelt and Tom Swiderski, “College Comes to High School: Participation and Performance in Tennessee’s Innovative Wave of Dual-Credit Courses,” Center for Education Policy Analysis (November 2021).
