A Big Answer for Public Education: Small Schools. A City School Experiment That Actually Works.
Mosle, Sara
New York Times Magazine, p26-31,49-51 May 28 1995

Like many, SPC offers small classes, greater teacher-student interaction, and a rigorous curriculum, but depends on some private financial support. However, it remains questionable whether the City cares enough about reform to finance smaller schools. (LP)
