- Summary:
-
The seemingly endless battle to reform American schools rages onwards as we approach the 21st century. Taxpayers seem confused and are not supporting public schools as they have done in the past. Parents are up in arms about perceived lack of student safety and discipline. Everyone bemoans what appears to be a failure of students to grasp even basic academic subjects. In short, the schools are receiving the brunt of the blame for the dumbing down of America. This book launches a frontal attack on the nature of the educational process and lays out clear guidelines for the future.
