The sentiment is powerful, but I'm left wondering, how American schools and educators are helping students meet that promise? When we see schools today moving in the direction of more tests, harder tests, more rigor, and less choice in the classes students take, the question that lingers is this: "When will students have time to change anything when we don't give them the time to discover, explore, and grow their own passions?" Instead we focus our time, talents, energies and funds on ensuring they have high scores on tests often in subjects they never even wanted to take.
