Who is the Partnership?
“This is a story about the big public conversation the nation is
not having about education… whether an entire generation of
kids will fail to make the grade in the global economy because they can’t think their way
through abstract problems, work in teams, distinguish good
information from bad, or speak a language other than English.”
How to Build a Student for the 21st Century, TIME Magazine, December
