For our group discussion on Friday, February 23, I think we need to address the following topics:
- School Names (MLK High School) - Why do we do it? Should we?
- Segregation – Is this a social or educational issue? Is it really a problem?
- Monetary Incentives – Should teachers be financially enticed to join underachieving and/or lower-socioeconomic schools?
- School Funding – How can equality be achieved? Are private donations wrong?
Does anyone else have any other suggestions for topics? How do we want to organize the discussion? Please reply back.

This sounds like a good outline to me. Do you know how long our discussion should be? I also think we need to address what people believe could be solutions for the problems brought up by Kozol (We don’t talk about problem-solving in our class, so let me know if you think this would even work?) Anyways…..Hopefully others will give their imput, but if not we should print these questions off and just use them!
