I believe a strong educational system is necessary for economic growth and prosperity of the country.

I believe a strong educational system is necessary for economic growth and prosperity of the country. Specialized educational programs can be designed around specific problems such as carbon emissions, natural disaster controls, and other areas where there are problems; creating a group of people who have the necessary training and resources to develop innovative approaches to solving domestic and global issues. Education is important and it should be recognized that everyone is different, our country is very diversified and not every student is the same. I do not support "no child left behind" or "standardized testing" in their current implementations and the reason for that is that every student is different. For instance a student who is "artistic" would score differently than someone who is "scientific" on a standardized test and in the "no child left behind" model, they would not receive the appropriate education.
