Synopsis
This book proposes a new accountability plan for public education, advocating for a shift from narrow subject-based grading to a broader assessment of outcomes. It suggests holding schools responsible for fostering basic knowledge, critical thinking, artistic appreciation, physical and emotional health, and preparation for skilled employment. The plan emphasizes higher-quality testing, professional evaluation, and leveraging existing capacities to measure and ensure schools' success in these areas.
