“Common sense, backed
by research, suggests that at-risk youth and their families have multiple needs
that are not successfully addressed by single-response, stand-alone initiatives.
There is growing interest in community-based collaboratives focused on the
integration of service delivery. Many students need more than just instructional
services to succeed in school.”
-Education Commission of the States
“The assumption here is that all children can learn. The need is for teaching
strategies and school organizations that make that possible.”
-Linda Darling-Hammond

Success for All
“Our research summary shows
that virtually every child can succeed in the early grades in principle.
The number who will succeed in fact depends on the resources we are
willing to devote to ensuring success for all and to our willingness to
reconfigure the resources we already devote to remedial and special education
and related services.”
-Robert Slavin, Nancy Karweit, and
Barbara Wasik
