(Galston) All in all, it is clear that your social statute is a strong factor of influence when concerning the level of education that you receive.

In some isolate cases, people can actually improve the efficiency of their educational systems. It is absolutely necessary for an educational institute to have virtuous directors in order for its students to become well educated. An academic curriculum would surely be benefic for the young minds waiting to be taught. A solution for the U.S. educational system to be efficient regardless of people's backgrounds would be for the government to attempt to pay equal attention to all people. Also, the government needs to create better educational programs for all students to enjoy the same level of education.

One of the biggest mistakes made by a normal institution is to believe that in order for a certain problem to be solved, one would need to put more money into various programs. Educational officials are inclined to blame either teachers or students for the fact that the numbers prove the U.S. educational system of being ineffective.

The No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act has been introduced by the government with the purpose of providing every child with appropriate education in spite of the social statute of the respective child.
While the program appeared to be the perfect solution for the burden that the U.S. educational system had had until the time, it did not proved its competence over the years. A large culpability for the setbacks experienced by the program is given to fact that teacher shortages have lead to inexperienced personnel being used for tasks that only qualified people should perform. "The CEC (Allbritten et al., 2004) reported a nationwide shortage of 40,000 qualified special education teachers." (Richard L. Simpson, Paul G. Lacava, Patricia Sampson Graner, 2004) As a result of the teacher shortages that the U.S. is experiencing, unqualified teachers can get easily jobs which require special training without being familiar with the domain in which they will be working.

For educational programs like NCLB to be efficient, governments need to change their strategies and to come up with methods of training teachers until there are qualified to occupy the position that they presently occupy. Frequent tests need to be devised for teachers to be verified that they are capable of performing certain tasks.
