On Tuesday, President Obama announced his strategy for reforming education in the U.S.
In yesterday's segment of "The Diane Rehm Show", two LCCR coalition members – Dianne Piche, executive director of the Citizen's Commission for Civil Rights, and Lily Eskelsen, vice president of the National Education Association – reacted to Obama's education agenda and discussed some of the issues around reforming education in the U.S., such as teacher layoffs, the high school dropout problem, charter schools, teacher compensation, and removal of ineffective teachers.
Diane Rehm also interviewed Melody Barnes, director of the White House Domestic Policy Council, about Obama's education agenda.
