EDU 101 had its first meeting on March 24th, 2007. A new program EDU 101, is intended to be a community forum about education topics. Dr. Steve Cohen, the Rye City School District's new Asst. Superintendent, spoke about the historical perspective of separating children in different educational tracks and how that affects children's self-esteem and ability to achieve in school. His presentation can be read in three seperate posts below - the final part of his presentation is first. The roundtable discussion was interesting and very lively and was attended by George Latimer, a member of the EDU 101 planning board; Bob Zahm, a member of the Board of Education; Dr. Ed Shine, Superintendent of Schools, as well as members of the Rye community.
We look forward to your comments on this and other topics that will be posted here.
