Summary: A short report on an award given to a group of schools in California for improving the education of students from low-income families.

Audience: General Public

Key Points: 1) Not all news on education is bad, 2) Schools who are performing well are being rewarded (or at least awarded).

Relevance: As we discussed last Saturday, education can be a real downer right now.This is especially true in the state of California. It was nice to run across a little bit of good information, recharge my "yeah, I can make a difference" batteries, and I wanted to share it with y'all.
