Democracy, freedom and equality, these values are the foundation of the United States, and they spare no effort to implement them in education. On the one hand, American education has been at the forefront of the world for a long time, but on the other hand, it has also caused some old problems such as students' laziness, low study density, less study time, low curriculum standards and campus violence.
During Obama's tenure, some new issues in education reform have also been put on the agenda. The first is the "financial storm" from Wall Street. When the financial crisis swept the world, it also directly impacted the American education system, the United States
States and school districts are facing the problem of insufficient education funds.
Party ideology also has a great influence on educational reform. The Democratic Party of the United States pursues liberalism and has always advocated exaggerating education expenditure, safeguarding the interests of the disadvantaged groups and demanding equal educational opportunities for the disadvantaged groups. Under the tight financial situation, spending money to solve the education problem will face great challenges.
There is no unified national education system in the United States, that is, there is no unified education administrative system. The educational management system in the United States is a typical decentralized system, that is, the federal government exercises limited administrative responsibilities of coordination and service, while the state government has absolute management and decision-making power over education, and the school district Committee decides its own educational management model according to local conditions. The Federal Ministry of Education can exert a certain degree of influence by controlling the education fund.
