More From Donna Shalala
- "But I have a driver, so I can return calls while I’m in the car."
- "The economic dimension is very clear. I was at a dinner party, a mother got up, who’s a very distinguished scientist, and said she had to get home and help her daughter with her homework. The two waiters, their faces changed. They were working their second jobs, they couldn’t get home to help their kids with homework."
- "We know the parental support, community support, makes a difference. It’s not just the metrics of testing and putting pressure on the schools and on the teachers."
