Crisis in Lorain
The Sound of Ideas: Wednesday, July 18, 2007
Tension is growing in Lorain. Facing a $14 million deficit, the school board laid off a third of its teachers. Now, some Lorain teachers want to fire the board. Wednesday morning on The Sound of Ideas, we'll explore both sides of the crisis facing the Lorain City School District. It led to the layoff of 246 teachers, and the education of nearly 9,000 students is at stake. You're invited to join the conversation - it starts at nine on 90.3.

Cleveland Schools CEO Eugene Sanders
The Sound of Ideas: Tuesday, June 26, 2007
It's been a full year since Cleveland Schools CEO Eugene Sanders began to challenge the status quo with his ideas for reinvigorating the largest school system in Ohio. What's been accomplished thus far? Has the revolution been successful? And why should it matter to people who have no child enrolled in a city school? Eugene Sanders will be in studio for the entire hour to talk about the present and future of a system he insists will one day be regarded as premiere. Join us for The Sound of Ideas Tuesday morning at nine on 90.3.
