The leaky kindergarten-to-college pipeline for high-achieving, low-income students

Aaron Churchill , Michael J. Petrilli

America is wasting much of its human capital. That’s because many high-achieving, low-income students—we call them HALO students—fall off the education track and never reach the gates of our top colleges and universities. Regrettably, these capable young people won’t reap the benefits of a four-year degree, which remains a generator of upward mobility and career success.

CRPE on special education: Great diagnosis, wrong prescription

Chester E. Finn, Jr.

A remarkable new data engine and provocative policy paper from the Center on Reinventing Public Education should serve to refocus the attention of policymakers and ed-reformers on the many shortcomings of special education as it has evolved over the past half-century.

The illusion of learning: The danger of artificial intelligence for education

Robert Pondiscio

In the spring of 2000, E.D. Hirsch Jr. published an essay in American Educator titled “You Can Always Look It Up—Or Can You?” It’s one of those pieces that distills a lifetime of insight into a few pages. Hirsch argued that the notion of teaching “learning skills” instead of knowledge was deeply misguided.

Do high school STEM opportunities affect postsecondary decisions?

Meredith Coffey, Ph.D.

Careers in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields tend to pay well, offering about double the average wages of non-STEM jobs. But even with that pay advantage, several STEM careers rank among the anticipated workforce shortage areas.
