Education system lacking- Relevant data 'about the American education system shows the anemic state of our public sehools in a 1988 survey ofl5 nations both developed and underdevel­ oped. American students finished last.: This is a very disturbing sign. Another dismal stai~tic of our current situation is the extremely high dropout rate. Annually, 20-25% of high school students will decide to pursue. other interests than diplomas. Consider this; the drop · out rate has not decreased since 1960, and only 50% of high school students their. education in "a college pro- gram." . · . What are tthe complex reasons for tile crumbling of our school system? The problem is not for a lack of money, since real education spending (adjusted for. inflation) has increased 30% since 1970. The total spend­ ing per student has increased from $1886 in 1960 to $4626 in 1988. Yet, with all. this spending, the average scholas­ tic acheivement test (SAT) score has decreased by 50 points, out of a total of 1600points,-since1970( The initial impression is that our educational dollar is not being funneled to our children in the most efficient way. In fact, New York City has more education bureaucrats than the entire country of France. One should be appalled and outraged by this inefficient educational bureaucracy. Another perplexing situation which is seriously effecting students is the classroom setting. The average size of the classroom has decreased from 25to18.
