“我们需要恢复一些平衡。”阿德霍尔德说。
今年秋天,新泽西州普林斯顿附近一个成绩优异的学区的负责人大卫·阿德霍尔德给家长写了一封长达16页的警示信。
This fall, David Aderhold, the chief of a high-achieving school district near Princeton, New Jersey, sent parents an alarming 16-page letter.
阿德霍尔德的信没有让这些家庭联合起来,而是揭示了这个有着9700名学生的学区的一个分歧,这一分歧基本以种族界限为边界。
Instead of bringing families together, Aderhold's letter revealed a divide in the district, which has 9,700 students, and one that broke down roughly along racial lines.
然而,阿德霍尔德的信并没有给家人带来团聚,而是揭示了该地区存在的一种分歧。该地区有9700名学生,而且基本上是按种族界限划分的这个区域。
But instead of bringing families together, Aderhold's letter revealed a divide in the district, which has 9,700 students, and one that broke down roughly along racial lines.
在这封信中,阿德霍尔德将西温莎-普兰斯伯勒地区学区纳入了一场全国性的讨论之中,其内容是关于精英学校对成就的高度关注,以及这种关注是否过度了。
With his letter, Aderhold inserted West Windsor-Plainsboro Regional School District into a national discussion about the intense focus on achievement at elite schools, and whether it has gone too far.
“我们希望恢复一些平衡,”阿德霍尔德说。“大家都不希望等到为时已晚的时候。”
"We need to bring back some balance," Aderhold said. "You don't want to wait until it's too late to do something."
