In America, we have 19th century school conditions and a curriculum that prepares our kids for the 1990s.

Schools are launching pads, launching our kids into their futures. Unfortunately, a lot of what we teach now looks identical to what we taught 40, 50, or 60 years ago. There's a need for both timeless curriculum content and timely content. What seems to be falling by the wayside is timely content.

The function of a guideline isn't to tell you what kids have actually experienced; it's to provide goals.
