Education Task Force


America's public education system is critical to our economy and is also the foundation of our democratic rights and freedoms. Yet, American public schools have not kept up with the times; we've entered the 21st century, but in fundamental ways our school system reflects the needs and realities of a bygone era. The Renewing Our Schools, Securing Our Future National Task Force on Public Education has examined a wide range of approaches and innovative strategies to revitalize and improve public education.
