I think Averroes was saying in another thread that one of the best things that could be done for children in dysfunctional or unstable situations (which, mutatis mutandis, would include a vast majority of children in most of the kinds of problem schools that public education policy is ostensibly supposed to fix) would be to lengthen the school day and/or school year. I think that might be a good starting point for a constructive engagement between his perspective and policy preferences and Torie's. (Full disclosure: My family and educational background is, roughly, J.D. Vance meets Rory Gilmore.)
