America has long been a victim of poor educational standards, standardized testing, and mediocre courses. As we become a progressive nation, it is important for us to think about the future and consider helping those who shape and influence the future: students. The 5 steps of American Educational Reform (AER) will help to: cut or re-vamp programs like the College Board & ACT, invest more resources and money for more enriching programs and opportunities, create new courses and hire more teachers to shape a diverse curriculum, institute a new educational system that prepares students for college, and revise state standards. AER's ability to foster new changes in education will serve the purpose of encouraging students to explore the world around them and discover their true passions.
