economic backgrounds from
which these children come and
can not be used as alibis for
our failure to find awaytoed-
ucate these children.
A third myth Is that these
children can hardly hope for
high academic achievement,
diat the best we can do is send
lle m to tlie"dum puiggiound"
that many of our vocational
training progiams have been
named. This Is adouble-edgud
slu r, (t Is a slur against mod­
em
vocational programs,
which Incieaslngly requires
basic academic skills fo r any
hope of success. And It is a
slur against these children,
who deserve more than de­
tours from education.
How can we bring tree edu­
cational quality to the schools
of the poor, how can we give
these children a fa ir chance of
success? I think diat the fo l­
lowing items w ill repiesenta
good start.
1) Tlie substandard school
is precisely the wrong school
fo r the children of poverty.
Itiese children need die most
skilled of teachers, not the
least skilled; tlie leastciow d-
od of classrooms, not the most
crowded; the best of educa­
tional opportunity, not tire
least of educational opportuni­
ty. A ll this they need to make
up tlie deprivations suffeied in
every other aspect of their
lives.
2) T hese children need an
imaginative change frontways
of teaching which do not work
atxl w ill not work. Many of
these children w ill reject tra ­
ditional texts and curricula -
even with good teachers atxl
good lutidings. We need new
prim ers and readers (or them
which recognize th e ir exis­
tence In our society. We also
need teachers who are trained
and gifted In teaching disad­
vantaged child i en; who have
warmth and insight which no
legislative act can accom­
plish.
3) We need a broad and flex­
ible attitude in administering
tliese schools of poverty. Wc
must bring the school Into tlie
community's life and die com­
munity into tlie school. We
must reach out to the parents
anil build on their desire for
self-help, which Is the only
kInd of help that really w oiks.
We must be more flexible wldi
oui authority, more w illing to
seek and Invent new answers
when old one fa ll.
When the school becomes a
treacon of promise insteado^a
dark foi tress within tlie com­
munity, then we can mark our
day of accomplishment.
