Banks says although he believes the new curriculum will help many, it may be too late for older students. 'We haven't given up on those kids, and there are a number of supports we provide them. It's just that most of the focus has been on younger kids, because we're trying to plug the dam, if you will,' he said in an interview with CBS News New York's Doug Williams.
