[quote=Anonymous]New poster here. I'm watching to see howit goes this year. I guess the thing that keeps bothering me is the culture of fear for our children's futures and the hype about keeping up with other countries' successes in teaching math and science. Seems to me that those arguments are lacking some perspective. Yes, the u.s. public education system should be consistently better. But are we really educating our children "for the workforce" or do we want to raise a generation of kids with character, creativity, and curiosity? I'm putting my money on the latter. Perhaps basis values these things too. I'm just not hearing a lot about them in these discussions.[/quote]
