That Oughta Do It

Longer school years
Longer school days
Inspirational names for schools
Divide big schools into small ones
Give students rewards for doing what they’re supposed to
Put up pennants from various colleges
Teach according to State Standards
Scrutinize and evaluate teachers more carefully
Provide more culturally sensitive materials
Create teaching teams
Use a lot of inspirational slogans and quotes
Tinker with grading systems
Integrate technology into lessons
Create discipline steps
Post standards
Post learning targets
School uniforms!
Viola!
Achievement gap closed
Everyone smarter
Problems solved
