    American school system, and have always seen more wrong than good.

No, instead we now focus on standardized tests, and our jobs now literally depend on how our students pass these tests. We are lacking greatly as a country in the world when it comes to education.

    When it comes to the Education System, everyone can agree on one thing. It needs to be changed.
