Summary:

What is the purpose of public education? Writing from his experience as a father, small business owner, and policymaker, Georgia's Lieutenant Governor Casey Cagle presents a comprehensive vision to transform the way that public schools educate our students. Cagle makes the case for reforming our schools and rethinking the premise behind how we set and measure goals for student achievement. Seeking to remove the obstacles that impede student achievement, Cagle explains a thoughtful vision for the future of public education, turning the status quo on its head.
