Said George Bush on February 21, 2001. So newly minted as President, and he was already showing how wrong he was going to be about how best to educate America's children. But Bush, and his No Child Left Behind, legislation, while disastrous, are not alone in the blame for the dismal shape of our education system in the US. We get it wrong at every level. And every last one of us bears some responsibility, parent, teacher, student, administrator, teacher unions, taxpayer, political leader.
