| "The
responsibility for the at-risk status of a child...does not reside in
one individual - be it the child, mother, or teacher - or in one institution
- the school. Society creates schools in certain ways to meet its goals
and expectations, thus creating environments in which certain children
are at risk. The solution to the at-riskness of children and youth, then
lies with us all."
--Richardson
and Colfer, 1990 |
