We are currently a nation of underachievers. This book describes in detail how we can move from our present disfunctionally designed 19th Century school system to a 21st-century system designed to deliver high achievement for all students. The present system is failing all students in terms of learning to their true ability levels. We can eliminate the achievement gap between races, genders and economic classes and do it all with existing resources or less. This is a win - win - win book. Students win, teachers win, parents and taxpayers win. Money is not the problem. How we spend money is.
