Let Kids Rule The School

Susan Engel  wrote this in the March 15 New York Times.  http://nyti.ms/edN8oj  I'd be curious to know more about what the kids she describes did.  What books did they read?  Did any of them use Kahn Academy for math help?  We need a Part B to help spread the word, to give other kids the confidence to try to learn this way, to help educators overcome the apprehension about letting kids do something on their own.  Kudos to a school willing to empower young people.
