Afterschool programs, accessible technology, small classes, and improved teacher training are essential ingredients. Other articles discuss related issues: vouchers, standards, the phonics/whole-language debate, alternative schools, Baltimore schools' financial mismanagement, and government guarantees. (MLH)
