But their plans soon ran into a constituency not so easily moved - Newark's key education players, fiercely protective of their billion-dollar-per-annum system. It's a prize that, for generations, has enriched seemingly everyone, except Newark's students. Expert journalist Dale Russakoff delivers a story of high ideals and hubris, good intentions and greed, celebrity and street smarts - as reformers face off against entrenched unions, skeptical parents, and bewildered students. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Education|zNew Jersey|zNewark|xFinance. 650 0 School districts|zNew Jersey|zNewark|xFinance. 650 0 Students|zNew Jersey|zNewark|xAppropriations and expenditures. 650 0 Educational equalization|zNew Jersey. 700 1 Cross, Pete|c(Actor),|enarrator. 730 0 hoopla (Digital media service) 914 MWT11429432
