This book answers the questions on what must be done to meet the educational goals required to maintain our democratic form of government, provide the knowledge and skills required for our free enterprise system, and to give each individual, as Lincoln said, an unfettered start and fair change in the race of life. The old clich?, outside the box, represents major changes and needed re-imagination of what education in our country must do to remain viable. No one has a magic wand to make such improvements just happen. What is needed is revolutionary program interventions that result in what all thinking citizens in America seek, a public school education program that is the best of all worlds.
Dr. M. Scott Nortonis a former school teacher, coordinator of curriculum, assistant superintendent and superintendent of schools. He has served as professor and vice-chairman of the Department of Educational Administration and Supervision at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and as professor and chairman of the Department of Educational Administration and Policy Studies at Arizona State University where he serves as professor emeritus.
