M. Scott Norton discusses the major controversial issues facing K12 education, including educational standards, gun control, funding, teacher licensure, and many more. The reader will be able to determine just how the controversial issues weigh heavily on school program success and student learning. Although it will be difficult to reach a final recommendation or solution, the available research and readers ability to become familiar with the topic will lead to a better understanding of why the controversies tend to go on and on.
