Educators all across America are eager to turn schools around and change the system. Russ Mitchell reports "Where America Stands" on education and lays out the challenge ahead.
Our higher education system seem to be more of a success because it has students that want to be there, not forced to be there. Most colleges offer public education. That is why I feel during high school we shouldn't be concerned with the drop out rate. Students who are force to attend school become a distraction to children who are eager to learn. We have the GED set in place for students who want an education at a later time. Lets build on what is good about our education system.
Yea, but that's mostly higher education. Foreign exchange students go to American Universities. No one thinks the Public school system (K-12th grades) in America is great. It's far far from perfect. So, what you say is true, but that's not the point of the video.
@blkthingblkthing how many of those have been "real" americans and not immigrants?
people all over the world are intrested only at your high end educational facilities...

Another government run institution run into the ground.
Government run schools are terrible when compared to private schools. Private schools educate better at half the cost.
The people have lost faith in government to do anything worthwhile.

Asia have very high educational performances. Everything they teach is above the average of an American kid's level.

* I keep wondering why American keep winning awards for excellence in science and math almost every year.
* It is almost against the law not to educate someone without a brain.
* People all over the world are coming here for an education (Not staying in their own so call educated homelands)
* Yes, America is now starting to pay more attention to the higher educational performance of minorities.
* We can make education better by building on what is good with our education system.
