Article in Response to Controversy

Abstract

What kind of education do our children deserve? Whose vision of education will prevail? Should we provide our children with an education that prepares them to meet the needs of big industry companies, as hinted at in the epigraphs above: Is this the kind of education our children deserve? Or, as the student suggests, by noting the disjuncture between the county’s medium salary and its high school graduation rate, should we provide our children with an education that prepares them to critique and transform the existing and historical dominance of big industry companies: Is this the kind of education our children deserve?
