Americas Schools Failing to Deliver? : The Report Card Say It Has Failed!

Secretary DeVos explains the failure of public education? Or 

is modern public education corrupted.

The war for the next generation of leaders has become front and center. The bottom line is public education has failed to deliver results to provide the needed guidance and knowledge to keep our county free and prosperous.

What has happened with public education is an abomination of too many educators that believe their personal ideology of must rule the day. An ideology of divided classes of people were one rules the other.

Progressive socialism!

And little wonder the fight is so intense against Charter schools and Vouchers that brings some fresh and productive education that children must have from the very beginning of their lives to make good and commons sense decisions to advance their lives and that of their future in the larger civil society.

Nation’s Report Card ‘Must Be America’s Wake-Up Call,’ Betsy DeVos Says

Mary Margaret Olohan / October 30, 2019

Education Secretary Betsy DeVos criticized the state of American students’ education Wednesday, saying the United States is in a “student achievement crisis.”

DeVos referred to the 2019 Nation’s Report Card, a national assessment of U.S. students’ academic understandings and abilities released Wednesday. The report found that between 2017 and 2019, reading and mathematics scores lowered for all students, except for mathematics scores for fourth-graders.

“Every American family needs to open the Nation’s Report Card this year and think about what it means for their child and for our country’s future,” DeVos said in a statement provided to The Daily Caller News Foundation.   “The results are, frankly, devastating. This country is in a student achievement crisis, and over the past decade it has continued to worsen, especially for our most vulnerable students.”

DeVos warned that “this must be America’s wake-up call.”  “We cannot abide these poor results any longer,” the secretary of education said. “We can neither excuse them away nor simply throw more money at the problem.”

DeVos said the Trump administration has “a transformational plan” that aims to expand education freedom and help students “break out of the one-size-fits-all system” and “unlock their full potential.”
“They deserve it. Parents demand it. And, it’s the only way to bring about the change our country desperately needs,” she said.
