Our state test, forced by NCLB, seem to require it. The new National Geographic on China has an article about a young lady going to school in a very competitive middle school. The students at her school work long hours in and out of school. They must be successful if they hope to have any future. How many people will read this article and say we need to emulate the education model of China? I am afraid things will get worse before better.
