[quote=Anonymous]In order for a European model to work here, we would need federal not local control of schools and their standards, beginning at kindergarten. That will not happen in the US - our model is too States-centric for that. In Europe, national not local standards prevail. It’s akin to the social compact in many European countries regarding pensions and health care - they “work” (although Americans who are used to private health insurance would possibly not like the standards of care) because certain truisms are at play: everyone is employed, and works until age 65. You have to start at the ground up, not layer on top. [/quote]
