Opinion | American schools are not failing
The article challenges the common narrative that American public schools are universally failing by highlighting international assessment data showing that U.S. students perform better than often assumed, especially in reading and science. It emphasizes that the poorest and most disadvantaged students face conditions that limit their achievement, yet even among global peers, these students outperform many of their counterparts in other countries. The author argues that educational failures are concentrated in specific impoverished communities facing socioeconomic challenges, rather than being a systemic issue across all schools. Addressing these disparities requires targeted investments in disadvantaged areas, rather than widespread reform strategies focused on schools alone.
