Public education in the United States

The History of Education in the United States, or Foundations of Education, covers trends in formal and informal educational learning in the United States from the 17th century to the early 21st century. The first American schools in the original thirteen colonies were opened in the 17th century. Boston Latin School was founded in 1635 and is the first public school and the oldest existing school in the United States. [1] The first free, taxpayer-funded public school in North America, the Mather School, opened in Dorchester, Massachusetts, in 1639.Bilingual education refers to the practice of teaching school subjects in two different languages. It is readily applied to help students transition from their native language to the languages used in the country where they now live, but it can also be used to teach academic content in two languages at the same time.

Why is this important?

This is very important to do a review about it!

For decades, Public Education has gone through different changes such as segregation, the racial problem between whites and blacks, and Hispanics. The Educational System and also the low academic performance or training of primary schools from K - 12 grade in terms of reading, grammar, and math or geometry.

It is also very important to mention the problem of poor children in primary schools and the lack of interest by their parents or guardians in their academic performance, since they adults are more concerned about getting money and having more work than getting involved in activities in the school.

What does the “deficit” view of poor children mean? Say that in urban and midwestern elementary schools a large percentage of students are poor and barely able to learn. "It's no wonder kids aren't ready to learn."

All this negative of Primary Schools, Elementary, College, can be changed with a plan for improvement and training of teachers and school staff creating zero tolerance, eliminating segregation and discrimination regardless of social class. The government must create a plan or curriculum so that the children are more interested in the classes and focus on new learning techniques. They must create more student buildings so that there are not so many students in a class. The government must improve the salary of teachers and parents should be more responsible with the educational training of the child.
