Published in January, 1993, a short report details the most serious problems in our schools. Interesting read to see if these were actually problems and to see if things have improved since being documented.

Taken from the Abstract:
There are very few people who would argue about the importance of excellence in education. Problems such as teacher attrition, parental involvement, and student reading ability may hinder progress in education. They are major issues facing American education, and we as educators simply must do everything in our power to conquer them. An education is a valuable and necessary tool, and we must do everything we can to get our students to value their education. Though problems exist in education, there are always positive solutions to bring hope and success. -
