future roles as citizens, parents, workers, and consumers and how can
the Federal Government best support their efforts?
What does equity in public education mean?
How should assessment data be used?
Should federal mandates in public education be federally funded?
What are the ramifications to the country when a student chooses to
drop-out? How can drop-out rates be reduced?
Should the Common Core Standards be mandated of the states in order
to obtain federal funding? Should there be a national assessment
aligned with Common Core Standards?
