You want changes from the schools? Change parents, first.

When mothers abandoned their traditional role of raising their
children, children ceased to be civilized. But out nation was more
competitive in the global marketplace. Now the majority of US
households are headed by a single parent who must not only earn enough
to live, but do all the parenting, house work, cooking, etc.... That
is what must be changed about parenting.

Without that, no amount of money or effort will make a difference.

I disagree. If sufficient government funding were provided to reduce
class size to one teacher per student, there would be a very
significant change in the quality of student achievement in this
country. Do you disagree?
