Here are two harsh realities about American education. K-12 schools are mired in mediocrity. Second, the Education Establishment and the high-level people who should be improving the schools seem indifferent to academic improvement.
My sense is that the only people crusading for genuine reform are traditional intellectuals. Alas, these are outsiders with little power. Meanwhile, Bill Gates, the federal government, and scores of "progressive" front groups pump billions into backing bad ideas.
