Conclusion

Today as never before, meeting our society’s challenges demands educational


excellence. Reinvigorating the economy, achieving energy independence with alternative
technologies and green jobs, and strengthening our health care system require a skilled
populace that is ready for the critical challenges we face. There is widespread consensus,
however, that our education systems are failing to adequately prepare all students with the
essential 21st century knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in life, career and
citizenship.
