| Without quality teachers and teaching, not even the most promising school's improvement effort will succeed. Setting high standards for students, involving parents more in education, infusing the effective use of computers and technology into our schools, and turning schools into havens of safety, discipline, and learning all depend in large part on providing students with access to talented, knowledgeable, dedicated, and caring teachers. |
