[Ohiogift] Cities are for ???

[Margaret DeLacy]

Friends:

Michael Petrilli has written an article arguing that Republicans should support services for Talented and Gifted students because liberals won't.  You can find it at 

"Cities are for Strivers"

http://www.publicsectorinc.com/psi_articles/2013/09/cities-are-for-strivers.html

This was published on the Public Sector website maintained by the Center for State and Local Leadership at the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research.

A similar column appeared in the Fordham Institute's Education Gadfly.  

A companion piece referenced by Petrilli is Allison Benedict, 
"If You Send Your Kid to Private School, You Are a Bad Person:  a manifesto".

This column seems to have hit a nerve, judging by the number of comments, "likes" etc.
