No Pot of Gold at the End of the Rainbow.

Nelson, Murry R.

Journal of Curriculum and Supervision, v16 n3 p206-27 Spr 2001

By 1993, New York City's multicultural and innovative Children of the Rainbow curriculum had been discontinued and the education chancellor fired. This article examines the curriculum's development and implementation and the controversies surrounding it. After-effects linger, as other U.S. districts address various social issues in the school curriculum. (Contains 57 footnotes.) (MLH)
