teach students to relate to authority begins in kindergarten and continues through the primary grades.With young

elementary grades upward students know very well that it is beyond the power of school authorities to inflict any real hurt.External controls do not
teach students to want to learn; they
teach the reverse.The net effect of this situation is that urban schools
teach poverty students that relating to authority is a kind of game.And the deepest, most pervasive learnings that result from this game are that school authority is toothless and out of touch with their lives.What school authority represents to urban youth is «what they think they need to do to keep their school running.»
