Last weekend mayors from across the country unanimously endorsed "parent trigger" laws aimed at bypassing elected school boards and giving parents at the worst public schools the opportunity to force immediate change. This hour Kathleen Dunn speaks with individuals on both sides of the issue about the impact these laws have on school districts.
Guests:

9:00 - Gabe Rose, Deputy Director, Parent Revolution.

9:30 - Diane Ravitch, historian of education, educational policy analyst, research professor, Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development, New York University. Former U.S. Assistant Secretary of Education.
