Is our education System Failing?

                     Is our educational System Failing?

I believe our educational system within the united states is horrible!!! From my own experiences i would love to reform our education system in order to provide students with constant work and engaging activities, and self study. We also need certified teachers who are able to individually work with several students at a time in order to develop their interests. I would love to move to Finland in order to become a student within their education system, but sadly i cannot, therefore i am restrained to my current education system. But ask yourself if we change teachers will the students be able to actually achieve? My answer is maybe. It is not a teacher's job to provide an incentive they are supposed to provide the resources. The student must be willing to learn and provide results. Our state believes we must spend financial resources in order to provide the student with an incentive, but this strategy will not work if the student is unwilling to learn.
