<		I liked your essay. I think the American public school system is broken for greater reasons than tracking. I never went to a public school, but reading the literature, it seems that policies that involve severe budget cuts and No Child Left Behind is leaving so many children behind. Public schools, especially those in the inner City, need more MONEY. But with No Child Left Behind, the schools lose money if their children don’t perform well on the exams. It seems a little backwards to me. If the children are doing poorly on the standardized tests, shouldn’t the school get MORE money? That’s just my opinion.

 Also the schools that suffer from lack of funds are not able to hire enough teachers to teach and help the students. There’s also overcrowding which makes the school environments a place where it’s more difficult to learn in the classroom.

<		I did a little chuckle when I read about the part of the kumi system where the students help clean the schools. America is such a litigious society that I shudder to think what would happen if schools made children help clean the school buildings. They would go bankrupt from the lawsuits.
