“Upon the education of the people
of this country, the fate of the country depends” (Benjamin Disreali).
Disreali
makes a bold statement insisting that the country realize that without education the success of America,
or any nation at that, will demise.
On January 8, 2002, President George W. Bush traveled
to Hamilton
High School in Ohio.
There, he signed his legislation on the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB). This Act was devised to establish rigid guidelines
for public schools and makes states accountable for achieving significant improvements in education with emphasis on reading
and math.
