Bad students, not bad schools

Americans are increasingly alarmed over our nation's educational deficiencies. Author Robert Weissberg argues that the answer is something everybody knows to be true but is afraid to say in public, America's educational woes too often reflect the demographic mix of students. He argues that most of America's educational woes would vanish if troublesome students were permitted to leave when they had absorbed as much as they could learn and replaced by learning-hungry students, including many new immigrants from other countries.--[book cover].
