Obama says his focus is on providing good schools for all kids, and that's why he does not support vouchers that allow parents to use public school money for private school. "We need to invest in our public schools and strengthen them, not drain their fiscal support," he says. "In the end, vouchers would reduce the options available to children in need. I fear these children would truly be left behind in a private market system." Obama is more open to charter schools working within the public school system, calling them "important innovators" which improve healthy competition among public schools. However, Obama says there need to be strong accountability measures in place.
Obama's catch phrase for this topic is, "No Child Left Behind left the money behind," meaning that unfulfilled funding promises have limited the program's effectiveness in improving public education. He says while the goals of No Child Left Behind are right, the way they've been implemented is wrong: there needs to be better assessment and a greater effort to ensure that every child has a successful teacher. "Particularly at a time when our nation is facing a shortage in teachers due to retirement and retention problems, it is important to ensure that we can attract, support, and retain high-quality teachers," he says. How does Obama propose we do this? By experimenting with alternative preparation, mentoring and professional development programs, in addition to providing fresh incentives for serving high-need schools. Specifically, he plans to provide funding for 200 new Teacher Residency Programs, an idea he introduced in the Senate last year. In these programs, individuals completing coursework for teacher certification could serve as apprentices in the classrooms of veteran teachers, as long as they pledged at least three years of service in the sponsoring district.
The president has said many times that education is crucial in the world today; he credits his mom and grandparents for making sure he studied even when he didn't feel like it, and he believes that is one reason why he became a success in life. He has often told parents that in addition to making sure their kids have the latest devices or see the latest movies, they must also encourage their kids to devote themselves to doing homework and getting the best education they can.
I can not recall any proposals for new federal education initiatives, but even if he has , the current make-up of Congress, plus the need to cut the deficit , would make it unlikely that he could push them through.
"I don't want to send another generation of American children to failing schools. I don't want that future for my daughters. I don't want that future for your sons. I do not want that future for America." - Barack Obama, Jefferson-Jackson Dinner, Des Moines, Iowa, November 10, 2007
