Students First – Brendan Ward
“When I spoke over the phone with Mr. Jamar McKneely, the CEO of InspireNOLA charter schools, a weather-alert siren was blaring around him. But Mr. McKneely plowed through, spoke over the siren, and told me how and why InspireNOLA helps so many students. At that moment I couldn’t help but notice that Mr. McKneely represented a lot of the education reform movement: Noise drowning out success. While Nationally people are making a lot of noise about education reform schemes, in New Orleans, people see the results and listen to what education reformers have to say. Education reformers like InspireNOLA Charter Schools.”(more)
