Produktbeschreibung

The public education system is failing our children. Almost two-thirds of oureighth graders aren''t proficient in reading or math. And in a single school year, USpublic schools see almost a million incidents of violence, a number that continuesto grow. In Can You Hear Me Now?, Suzanne DeMallie exposes the unsettling reality ofour classrooms with a brutally honest account of the policies and practices thatleave so many children behind. As a parent, DeMallie fought a nationwide battleagainst bureaucracy for the simple, common-sense idea that children in the back of aclassroom should be able to hear their teacher. Now, as a teacher herself, DeMallieis speaking loud and clear, fighting public-school dysfunction on the inside. CanYou Hear Me Now? walks parents and teachers through everything they need to know tomake a difference in their local district and beyond, from the most basic questionsthey should be asking to the most effective steps they can take to make their voicesheard. Join the conversation!
