15:20 Dr. Montecel closes her speech: «The Quality Schools Action Framework speaks to the need and possibility
of engaging
citizens, leaders and policymakers around high quality data that call all
of us as members
of the
community to act, to establish common ground, to strengthen education, and finally and most importantly and fundamentally, to align our values with our investments in the school system: fundamentals and features that we know are needed — from teaching quality, to engaged students, engaged parents and families, and a high quality,
authentic curriculum so that students in every neighborhood and
of every background can in fact have equal educational opportunities.»
