Mark Zucherberg visits Newark to speak about his $100 Million Donation for Newark Public Schools & also on Oprah along w/ Cory Booker & Gov. Christie

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg's donation of $100 million for Newark's public schools has drawn national media attention, but the big-picture impact of such a gift is being questioned by Star-Ledger columnist Bob Braun. In his piece, Braun argues that New Jersey's public schools are not failing on the whole; instead, he says, it is the state's poorest communities where schools are faltering. Citing a link between wealth and academic achievement, Braun says that celebrity donations cannot take the place of public commitment to (and public spending for) New Jersey's schools.

"Education in our poorest districts will remain abysmal, as it has been for more than a generation, until it is valued by the citizens of these districts. Our educators told us that if we funded these districts at the level of the richest districts the educational achievement would equalize. Later we were told that we had to spend more because these kids were "different." Now, for example we spend more than twice the state average per pupil in Newark and the results are no different than when we spent half as much. Insanity is defined as doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome. Our leaders need to attack the root of the problem, involvement of the family and community. Throwing money at the problem is a proven failure."
