There are so many things that contribute to making education in America a failure that it is hard to place the blame. Lack of parental support is big, teacher laziness upon tenure is another, a total lack of common sense (zero tolerance)in administration another. But probably most critical is the fallacious concept of teacher accreditation and the idiocy taught in schools of education at American universities, followed closely by the disgusting self service of the teacher unions. Elimination of these last two would begin the required total reconstruction needed to make any impact on what has truly become one sorry institution.
