Can centralized control of curriculum improve standards? Can governments and institutions dictate what children should—or must—learn? With a look at the nature and effect of "education standards" from past to present, we will contemplate how to respond to this newest iteration of an idea which has repeatedly failed students, parents, and teachers. Can basic concepts of free enterprise and individual responsibility trump the trend of increasing centralization and government control? Difficult times require difficult questions—and careful thinking, so let us consider our position, our response, and our responsibility in regard to modern education standards.
