As someone who droped out of HS and now goes to College I have to say that it would be foolish to blame the consumers of the education, the kids, and not the people who run the super strucutre.

In all reality the american system of Education needs a top down overhall. The best way to find the solution to bad schools is to look out side the box and look at how other nations, (france, spain, austria) run their schools at higher efficenctcy (sp?).

Americana rejects "education"
How?
Well if you ask most (white) lower class individuals their opinion of Ed. they have contempt for the "pointy headed intellegencia".

for the upper class individuals most of the children belive that the purpose of an "Education" is to get a good job and eventually $$. This type of thinking doesn't really "celebrate" learning in and of itsself. Which is obviously bad.

Feel free to add.

To overhaul the education system from the top down would also involve overhauling pretty well the entire societal and cultural aims of which the education system were a part. It's a very, very complex and difficult idea.

Ivan Illich wrote some interesting stuff on this in "De-schooling Society."
