Dan Malloy and The National Forces Pushing for Education Reform - Wait, What?: "Connecticut has become one of the most important battle grounds in the national “Education Reform” movement.
And make no mistake – it is a “movement” – with people like Michelle Rhee leading the charge and hundreds of millions of dollars being pumped into the national effort.
Over the last three years, The Walton Family Foundation (funded by the Wal-Mart family) has poured $450 million into efforts to change education policy and develop charter schools in this country. They are very open about their “Investment Strategy.” Their goal is to promote charter schools, private school choice and education reforms. As they put it, “the need to continue improving the public policy environment is central to our education reform strategy."
