Virginia Beach, Virginia May 10, 2022 (Issuewire.com) - Education reformer Bruce Deitrick Price offers a weekly analysis of the many problems in American public schools.
Price has studied K-12 for more than 25 years. He enjoys explaining the big mysteries. "Why," he wants you to know, "are American K-12 schools so mediocre? Why do we have almost 50,000,000 functional illiterates? How do we escape from failing math scores? How do we avoid the sensation that American children are learning less and less each year?"
In short, Let's Fix Education provides the practical answers that parents and community leaders need if they hope to fix our education system.
"And please," Price insists, "let's not pretend that so much failure and dysfunction could happen by accident. American K-12 is undermined by hostile ideology. Everyone should learn how this hostility operates and how we can oppose it."
Let's Fix Education can be found on many apps, including Spotify, Apple, and Player FM. Scan the titles below; sample the ones that seem most relevant. You'll see that Let's Fix Education is focused on the serious stuff, not the usual fluff.

As for education, don't expect help from our media or universities. For many years they have looked the other way. Now they are part of the problem.
"The best hope," according to Price, "is that more Americans become passionate about school reform. Fixing education is a lot more engaging than most people imagine."
Price is available for articles, quotable quotes, interviews, and bold ideas you can build a column around. He has 500 articles on the Internet and his book Saving K-12 remains the best how-to guide for improving education.
"My background," Price explains, "is the arts and humanities. I know what good education looks like because I've been there for many years. What we have in our public schools is not good education. It's jargon, it's propaganda, it's deception."
Let's Fix Education is published every Wednesday. The typical length is about ten minutes.
