“If an unfriendly foreign power had attempted to impose on America the mediocre educational performance that exists today, we might well have viewed it as an act of war. As it stands, we have allowed this to happen to ourselves…..we have, in effect, been committing an act of unthinking unilateral educational disarmament”
Nation at Risk (1983)
“Anyone who really understands the problem doesn’t have a solution; Anyone who thinks he has a solution doesn’t understand the problem”
David P. Gardner (1983)

Educational Pipeline
“ future generations of Americans will not be competitive for high quality jobs in a global market place if the country fails to shore up the educational pipeline….laying the foundation for a scientifically literate workforce begins with developing outstanding mathematics and science teachers”.
Rising Above the Gathering Storm (2005)
California higher education institutions are graduating fewer students with Bachelors degrees in mathematics and physical science than the number of annual secondary teacher openings in these fields.
– California Department of Education– California Postsecondary Education Commission
The number of under-prepared math and science teachers will increase disproportionately in schools serving predominantly low income and minority urban communities.
