UNSUSTAINABLE frames the problem of cost and effectiveness in
AmericaOs public schooling system, and provides a strategy to
address it. It argues something that many education professionals
and policy makers have come to believe but rarely mention: That
this countryOs system of K-12 schooling is not sustainable and is
becoming a poorer value each year that goes by. It argues for
improving the cost and effectiveness of public schooling through a
strategy of innovation that targets productivity. Addressing the
question how to do this, the book provides policy recommendations
to the state, district, and federal levels. In a final chapter it
outlines uncommon strategies for overcoming some of the most
difficult political, practical, and structural roadblocks to
improvement.
