NY Press Club honors WSJ series on inclusion
June 17th, 2008From the Romenesko website on Poynter.org:
“Left out by inclusion,” a series by Wall Street Journal reporters Robert Tomsho, John Hechinger and Daniel Golden, won the New York Press Club’s 2008 Gold Keyboard award for outstanding enterprise or investigative reporting.
Synopsis from chief judge, David Diaz:
In a series on one of the most significant educational policy changes in decades, this finely written and thoroughly researched investigation shows that the “mainstreaming” of special education students has failed to live up to its promise - while hurting some of the very children it was supposed to help.
