The problems in our nation's schools, and the cures for those problems, have been mired in confusion, innuendo, and deception. It is time someone separated the truths about our schools from the lies. Now retired from education, and finally free to speak up, veteran high school teacher Bruce J. Gevirtzman reveals his shocking ideas for fixing our public schools. Providing an in-depth analysis of the causes of problems in our schools, Gevirtzman uncovers information that most of our leaders and many of our educators don't want you to know about, and here he tells all. What's more, he proposes a number of suggestions supported by both empirical and academic research to solve these problems, even though many educators and politicians continue to be ignorant of their potential. Sometimes disconcerting, often funny, and always enlightening, Audacious Cures for America's Ailing Schools takes us on a journey to education reform that works.
