Guests:

Jack O'Connell, superintendent of public instruction for the State of California and organizer of the two-day Achievement Gap Summit being held this week at the Sacramento Convention Center

Glenn Singleton, executive director of the Pacific Educational Group

Jeannie Oakes, director of UCLA's Institute for Democracy, Education and Access
