KIPP is hiring

KIPP is looking for smart, savvy, energetic people to help it carry out its newly-assumed obligation to stabilize and reconstruct Iraq, and to spread its “work hard, be nice” message to traditionally underserved religious minorities and militias. For more information, see here. Email résumés to KIPPFertileCrescent@dod.mil.

About Us

The Education Gladfly is published yearly on or around April Fool’s Day by the Thomas B. Fordham Foundation. Regular contributors include Borat Sagdiyev, disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff, the GEICO gecko, and that guy who used to be in the Dell commercials. Have something to say? It’s best you didn’t. Would you like to be spared from the Gladfly? Email buggeroff@edexcellence.net with “I’m incapable of comprehending large words” in the text of your message. You are welcome to forward Gladfly to others, who will hate you for having seen it first. To read old issues with outdated information or obtain other reviews of reports and books rather than reading them for yourself, go to www.edexcellence.net and click on the Must Be Really Bored link.

The Thomas B. Fordham Foundation pretends to be a nonprofit organization. We conduct fake studies, issue fatwas, and try not to screw up elementary/secondary education reform at the theoretic level or in Ohio, avoiding Dayton at all costs. The Foundation is neither connected with nor sponsored by Fordham University, mainly because we don’t yet have a mascot. Go Rams!
