Summary: A solid, solution-oriented discussion
Comment: Collaboratively compiled and edited by John E. Chubb (founding partner of Edison Schools and Nonresident Senior Fellow in Governance Studies at the Brookings Institution) and Tom Loveless (Director of the Brown Center on Education Policy and Senior Fellow in Governance Studies at the Brookings Institution), Bridging The Achievement Gap is a compilation of straightforward articles surveying and analyzing the academic achievement gap between white students and African American or Hispanic students, which first documented in 1966. The studies consistently find that Black and Hispanic students are much less likely to get high grades, graduate from high school, earn a college or advanced degree, or achieve a middle-class standard of living. Looking not only at the causes and effects of this ethnic and racial achievement gap, but also offering concrete ways to eliminate it, Bridging The Achievement Gap is a solid, solution-oriented discussion, and highly recommended reading for educators and governmental policy makers.
