URBAN DROPOUT FACTORIES Freshman entering Indianapolis Public Schools district: 2,900 Number graduated in 2004: 997

LOSING OUT: CHICAGO

MAYORAL CONTROL Daley’s mixed record

CHARTER SCHOOLS THE INDIANAPOLIS EXAMPLE Too incremental to change failing school districts?

VOUCHERS HELPING SOME KIDS IN MILWAUKEE, BUT NOT CHANGING THE OVERALL FAILURE OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

A Hollywood Model for American public education? Changing the model of how education is financed and operated must be done on national and state levels before any reform can work. School districts: From school operators to outsourcing operations. Charters and privates: Focusing on education, not buses. Independent authorizers: Specialists in regulating schools.
