Market-based education reform may be on the wane, but what’s the alternative?

Public schools are in the throes of multiple slow-moving crises: a teacher exodus, spiking student absenteeism and plunging literacy rates.

We've been debating how schools should educate and "Americanize" immigrant students for more than a century.
