As a society in too many ways we are failing our children, not just enough personal examples, but by not making enough reform in the institutions that affect their current and future lives. We must make our schools safe and our educational institutions flourishing, relevant and effective at preparing our youth for life in this century. We’re not just settling for a higher graduation rate, we have to make our schools the finest in the world. Learn from school systems here and abroad that are the most effective and successful.
