Better learning

NAEP is the National Assessment of Educational Progress and it calls itself the "Nation's Report Card," a "window into the state of our K-12 education system and what our children are learning."

Compared to public government schools, private schools deliver better results. According to this chart, Catholic schools do a better job of educating than either public or charter.

It costs the government about $20,000/year/student to run the public schools. All of that funding comes from taxpayers. But Catholic schools can educate a child for about $5,000-9,000/year/student. You have to wonder how they supply a better education at less cost.

Our education system desperately needs change.
