Strategic Context for the Two Editions of My Academic Journal Presented As You Scroll on Down to the Next Fifteen Articles >>>>> Remember That This is One of Several Revolutionary Venues That I Shall Utilize for Picking the Current Organizational Structure of the Minneapolis Public Schools Apart Piece by Piece

As you scroll on down to read the complete December 2019 and January 2020 editions of Journal of the K-12 Revolution:  Essays and Research from Minneapolis, Minnesota, remember that the academic journal is one of multiple venues via which I will be picking the organizational structure of the Minneapolis Public Schools apart piece by piece during New Year 2020.


The December 2019 edition details the individual and collective characteristics that make the current membership of the Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS) Board of Education hopeless as leaders for bringing knowledge-intensive education to the long-waiting students of the district, necessitating very intentional recruitment for next November’s elections of a high quality of school board candidate that is so rare across the nation as to approach zero. 


The January 2020 edition details the five-point program for bringing knowledge-intensive, skill-replete education to young people of all demographic descriptors.  The articles in the January 2020 edition detail the necessity of


1 >>>>>     overhauling curriculum for knowledge intensity;


2 >>>>>     training teachers capable of imparting knowledge-intensive curriculum;

3  >>>>>    highly intentional skill impartation to students languishing below grade level;

4  >>>>>    recruitment and placement of staff in a new Department of Resource Provision and Referral for reaching out to struggling families right where they live;

and

5  >>>>>     jettisoning of superfluous staff at the Davis Center (MPS central offices, 1250 West Broadway), including the entire Department of Teaching and Learning.

New Year 2020 will be a phase in the K-12 Revolution during which I will be exerting maximum pressure on the leadership at the Davis Center (MPS central offices, 1250 West Broadway in North Minneapolis) via this academic journal, my television show, the two 600-page tomes (one on the inner workings of MPS, the other providing the information across 15 subject areas of knowledge that students should be receiving but are not);  the daily articles entered on my blog;  my numerous public appearances;  and recruitment of candidates to run against this group of ne’er-do-well members of the current board next November.

Thus,  the fifteen entries to which you may now scroll down represent examples of one means of many that I shall utilize for picking the current organizational structure of the Minneapolis Public Schools apart piece by piece.
