Traditional public educators in the US have too little information
about the free market of schooling, otherwise known as
privatization/choice education. As a result, traditional public
education colleagues have lost sight of where they are and how they
got there. In this primer, educators, parents/caregivers, and
policymakers are offered an examination of the forces and factors
that undercut traditional public education and an inquiry into the
primary purpose and quality instruction that distinguishes
traditional public education from free market schooling. Without
knowing about the educational misdirection fostered by free market
schooling, traditional public education in the US cannot invest in
continuous improvement necessary to enrich the futures of all
students and our nation’s democracy. The time has come for
traditional public educators to study how we got out on a limb.
This book explores the nature of free market schooling and
discusses the information that traditional public educators need to
muster a defense of purpose, quality, social justice, and how to
think. Practical and theoretical insights throughout this book
focus on professional practice in traditional public education as
the means by which colleagues can assert excellence on behalf of
all students while thwarting the negative impacts of free market
schooling.
