Michigan legislators have been making many changes to Michigan's schools. This study group will examine these changes and discuss whether there is evidence-based research to better direct school change. Among the topics will be: Michigan's school history, the parental choice movement, recent school legislation, and financing and resource commitments over time. Dr. Barbara Cherem has gained a broad perspective on this subject through her 45 years in Michigan schools as: teacher, administrator, board member, parent, and teacher-educator in urban and suburban settings. She teaches graduate courses in school reform and education leadership and she is active in the Detroit Teachers' project through UM-Flint.

This class for those over 50 meets Thursdays, April 23 - April 30.
