PAY WALL - Who Runs the Best U.S. Schools? It May Be the Defense Department.

Relevant paragraph

How does the military do it? In large part by operating a school system that is insulated from many of the problems plaguing American education.

Defense Department schools are well-funded, socioeconomically and racially integrated, and have a centralized structure that is not subject to the whims of school boards or mayors.

Accountability goes a long way.

I can attest to this. My kids were leaps and bounds ahead when I left the military. Had critical thinking and problem solving skills.

Then they finished Middle and High School outside of the military and I feel like I should have retired there because I feel like I did them a disservice.

Americas lack of education system has been an issue for decades....but Ukraine and Israel needs billions so fukk it.

This article feels like a bait and switch:

• Insinuate that the military is driving different outcomes w/ their practices.
• Spend most of the article listing characteristics that are emblematic of being a well-funded school district with a diverse student base.

It touches briefly on the lack of school board, only to admit how bureaucratic the top-down approach is and, doesn't clearly illustrate how their structure (and not being well funded) is leading to better outcomes

This has always been an American problem
