    Access > Affordability

    The Dallas County Promise was launched this year as an ambitious effort to dramatically increase the number of high school graduates who earn a college degree or certificate. But don't call the Promise just a scholarship, because making college affordable isn't the biggest obstacle to overcome to create access for students who are often the first in their family to attend college.

    The Miseducation of Dallas County: Cementrification

    Have you seen the news about two low performing schools in West Dallas closing? Well, it actually has to do with a lot more than test scores. And one may not even need to close after all. So go behind the headlines and into the history with this month's edition of Miseducation.

    The Miseducation of Dallas County: What's a Scorecard, and How Do We Win?

    A conversation about the 2017 Dallas County Community Scorecard, an annual presentation of a year’s worth of data analysis, measuring the health of the overall education system here in Dallas County. I wasn’t quite sure what that all meant, so I somehow convinced three very busy staff members to sit down and tell me about it.

    The Miseducation of Dallas County: The Politics of Propaganda

    On September 28th, 2017, the Dallas Independent School District took a vote to fast track the renaming process for four elementary schools: Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, William L. Cabell, and Albert Sidney Johnston. These schools were chosen because each of these men were generals in the Confederacy. As it turns out, these schools and their names arose out of very specific and rather divisive political eras. And in order to understand why it was necessary to undo the actions of older generations, we have to revisit them.

  9. The Oral History of Margaret Benson

    The Oral History of Margaret Benson

    Tucked away in a shopping center beside the Pan-African Bookstore, not far from South Oak Cliff High School, is a green neon sign that says For Oak Cliff. It’s the logo of a community center, founded and lead by Taylor Toynes. Taylor’s a partner here at Commit and a lifelong member of the community. And last month, he was kind enough to introduce me to his grandmother, who moved to this neighborhood in 1944, and ran a store with her husband in the same shopping center for over thirty years. I wanted to talk to Margaret Benson to hear what it was like to attend a Dallas high school in the years immediately following Brown vs. Board of Education. A few of the answers to those specific questions were invaluable to an upcoming episode of our podcast, the Miseducation of Dallas County. But Mrs. Benson’s story extends far beyond that one moment, and in the hour we spent together she spoke on education, segregation, social life, and the history of her neighborhood, the historic Tenth Street district, or as she calls it, the Hills.
