Abstract | People looking for a public school Cinderella story need look no further than George Hall Elementary in Mobile, Alabama. The once struggling school, which serves mostly low-income children, now boasts state math and reading test scores most wealthy suburban schools would be proud of. George Hall did not have to sacrifice all but the basics to get there. Instead, the school's staff courageously focused on what some would consider frills in an era of high-stakes accountability: innovative technologies, rich vocabulary and content knowledge, even field trips. This article presents a conversation with George Hall principal Terri Tomlinson and teachers Elizabeth Reints and Melissa Mitchell. (ERIC). |
