system is understood. The article is informative because it takes the reader through the different reform acts that the state has passed. The article broadens the prespecitve by stating that the south, in general, does have a negative label on it in regards to the quality of its education. The writer takes the time to counter act this claim by saying that it is ranked 10th in the U.S. for percent of a cities population to have a college degree or higher. Perhaps the greatest asset to the article is its ability to show the reader how endowments have effected schools' enrollments and test scores. It serves as an informational site for those who are not familiar with the states' schools because it does list the different schools, as well as the different test phases it has gone through. The progression of education in
Kentucky could be more detailed in relation to the development of virtual schooling. However, the reform acts and tracking percentages are more valuable and informative. Another suggestion would be to create a better transition between the different headings within the article. This will create a better cohesiveness through out the article. The candidates in the upcoming gubernatorial election have proposals for improving the education system of the state. Therefore, the relevance and currency of the article would be improved if it were to include some of the candidates' proposals. It is valuable that various scholarships are listed within the article. However, it would not be helpful if requirements would be stated. It would have to be a detailed description, but a brief synopsis would be beneficial.

287:. Education in Kentucky is a much broader and comprehensive article of which KERA is a small (but important) part of. One addition I would suggest is more information on the 'performance events'. Although it has been a few years, I remember when Brown Middle (a part of the Brown School) in Louisville was one of the highest scoring schools in the state, but at the same time was labeled as under performing because it had not scored as high as it had done in the past.

I would like to see this article discuss reform strategies other than just federal or state legislation. I would also like to see a visual synopsis of the changes in scores for
Kentucky students over the past 20 years (since KERA was enacted), perhaps in a chart form. If there were more visuals on

about the high percentage of whites in the school sytem (compared to
California). Why not just report a "whites only" "blacks only" comparison and let the chips fall where they may? Leave out comparisons with individual states selected at random. The study (above) allows for that type of comparison.

The
Kentucky Department of Education features additional programs for a workforce student in addition to the college-bound initiatives discussed in this article. The article will offer a more well rounded perspective by including items such as "Graduate Kentucky," American Recovery and Reinvestment

Education in
Kentucky encompasses a broader scope than is presented in this article. While legislation such as the Kentucky Educational Reform Act and college-bound incentives highlight advances that leaders of the commonwealth are taking to improve education for residents, the article could offer

One of the most important things to consider in terms of improving public education in
Kentucky is where the students are actually going to school in relation to their homes. Statistics show that the average commute for many students in Jefferson County is 24 minutes one way. Perhaps one of the

This article covers a variety of topics regarding education in
Kentucky, but I would like to see the section on Education Reform expanded. While the section on reform focuses most exclusively on legislation enacting education reform, I would like to see a discussion on the other means in which

I am not from
Kentucky, so somebody from the state probably knows more than me, but when I studied Western Kentucky University, I found that the state had ruled that every public university would have to establish programs of excellence, which would recieve large amounts of funding (WKU chose

Another reform strategy to consider is creating voluntary charter schools. It stands to reason that if students and their families have a bigger role to play in terms of where children attend schools, they may all have a more vested interest in succeeding and performing well in said school.

Kentucky invests in advanced learning, which impacts the economy and the population directly. Beyond grant funding and average ACT scores, this article can highlight the areas of education and research in a way that more tangibly relates the investments to the citizens of the Commonwealth. I
