While our education system is definitely flawed, many immigrants come to our country to pursue an education because of the quality of education available in the U.S. The big problem with this, however, is that "quality education" is generally expensive, or only available to the wealthy. With this in mind, how do our schools really measure up when comparing an urban, underfunded school with less-than-desirable educational quality to the "standard," as set by our society?

I agree with this article in regards to what the issues are and how to address them. There isn't one magic solution, but I feel like better legislation and more resources going towards education can be a good starting point.

I agree with many of the points and believe with the proper changes, and funding we can build a better education system. but also agree with dan that many come to america because we do have a great education system but most of it costs money.

A lack of funds is defiantly a massive problem. If there's going to be a chance to fix these problems anytime soon, that should be a major one.
