Michael Alone.

Sizer, Theodore R.

American School Board Journal, v186 n9 p29-30 Sep 1999

Anonymity is the curse of the overloaded, specialized American comprehensive high school. Few teachers can be fully effective when teaching five dozen students. Reallocating instructional resources is essential. (MLH)
