Abstract | The results of the U.S. education system are not where they need to be. Between 2000 and 2017, the United States slipped from fifth to 10th among Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries in its rate of postsecondary degree attainment. More and more candidates for national office are presenting ideas for how to increase access to high-quality early childhood education and how to make higher education more accessible and affordable. And yet, with a few prominent exceptions, presidential candidates have not yet taken clear positions or staked out big ideas on how to ensure that every child has an excellent school. A new education agenda must be rooted in the idea of opportunity for all, with equity in access at the center. This means developing policies in partnership with everyday people, with a lens on how these policies will affect students from historically underserved and under-resourced communities. This agenda should focus on five key components: (1) Applying an explicit race equity lens to policy development; (2) Preparing all students for college and the future workforce; (3) Modernizing and elevating the teaching profession; (4) Dramatically increasing investments in public schools and improving the equity of existing investments; and (5) Bringing a balanced approach to charter school policy. This report, in turn, takes a detailed look at each of these components. (ERIC). |
