Peterson."A four hundred billion dollar industry, education is one of the largest sectors of the U.S. economy - yet scholars, educators, policymakers, and parents disagree about how education money should be spent. In particular, they differ on how best to improve a student's ability to learn or how much additional learning contributes to a child's success as an adult." "Chapters explore, among other topics, the influence of aptitude versus achievement, the value of increased instruction in math and English, the worthiness of standardized testing, the effect of social stratification among students, and the opportunities presented by school choice."--Jacket.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 213-224) and index.Introduction -- The preschool scramble -- Testing -- Class size -- Reading: what it takes to succeed -- When mathematicians get angry -- The right balance -- Teachers matter -- The perfect school."A book offering smart and sophisticated ways for parents to get informed about their children's education and constructively engage teachers, administrators, and school boards in order to get the education their children deserve"-- Provided by publisher."Award-winning education journalist Peg Tyre mines up-to-the-minute research to equip parents with the tools and knowledge necessary to get their children the best education possible. We all know that the quality of education served up to our children in U.S. schools ranges from outstanding to shockingly inadequate. How can parents tell the difference? And how do they make sure their kids get what's best? Even the most involved and informed parents can feel overwhelmed and confused when making important decisions about their child's education. And the scary truth is that evaluating a school based on test scores and college admissions data is like selecting a car based on the color of its paint. Synthesizing cutting-edge research and firsthand reporting, Peg Tyre offers parents far smarter and more sophisticated ways to assess a classroom and decide if the school and the teacher have the right stuff. Passionate and persuasive, The Good School empowers parents to make sense of headlines; constructively engage teachers, administrators, and school boards; and figure out the best option for their child, be that a local public school, a magnet program, a charter school, homeschooling, parochial, or private"-- Provided by publisher.
