On the recordOctober 21, 1997
I have still yet to hear someone say, it is that new Federal program, or it is this Federal program. The schools that are doing well are typically where a group of parents, administrators, and teachers have taken back their school and said, we are going to focus on these kids, and we are not going to focus on the bureaucracy and the red tape that either comes from Sacramento or comes from Lansing; but we know the kids' names, we know what their needs are. We are going to focus on our kids. We are going to take our schools back.
