Ron Blocker's solution for Evans & Jones

Part of Mr. Blocker's 26-point plan for Jones and Evans is to add a seventh period to Jones and Evans for ninth and 10th grades. Those classes of up to 12 students would be intensive reading lessons. Voluntary one-on-one tutoring would be available after school.

Too little, too late. This will create resentment among the students and is destined to fail. What these students need is intensive one on one reading instruction to bring them up to grade level.
