Opis

Facts and evidence show the failure of the public school system to educate students. Families want desperately to believe their children are receiving the learning they need to build a solid foundation for future success; but the facts prove otherwise. Yet, criticizing education is similar to disavowing Mom and Apple Pie, despite the fact that compelling evidence by renowned writers from the fields of business, finance, accounting, economics, political science and education reveals that problems inside the system are widespread. Meanwhile, the education establishment continues to excuse its failures by regularly claiming it requires more funding, while escaping accountability for taxpayer dollars, student learning and community collaboration. Proof from across the nation supports the premise: The outdated, government-centered school system has failed in its mission and must be transformed. Returning education independence to local community schools promises to provide the best opportunity for educating each individual student and revitalizing citizen involvement in the democratic process of decision-making. Both are essential for superior educational results and freedom.
