Excerpt
The public schools in America are in financial trouble, and teachers and administrators are feeling the pinch. The cost of providing a world-class education has gone well beyond what is provided by taxpayer dollars. In many districts, worthwhile programs such as those for music, art, physical education, foreign languages, and team sports have been curtailed or eliminated. Some neighborhood schools have been shut down. Teachers, administrators, and staff have lost their jobs. School boards are overwhelmed trying to pay for teacher and staff salaries, fringe benefits, materials, equipment, and technology as well as for maintenance of buildings and grounds.
