I am appalled by what’s going on in the educational system in this country. To focus only on math and reading and to have rewards to schools based on scores, which unfortunately are changed because people from the top administrators down are too afraid of losing jobs or grants, is really very sad. The whole educational system has to be changed. We have to introduce the subjects that made a mind well-rounded, and if we do not emphasize the more creative aspects of being an educated human being this whole country is going to fail in time.

Dorothy, a retired teacher from Brooklyn, responds to this morning’s segment discussing changes to the No Child Left Behind legislation. Diane Ravitch called the law “the worst piece of educational legislation ever passed by the Congress,” and Dorothy seems to agree. What’s your take?  (via thetakeaway)

For my answer, start in Atlanta.
