The system isn't failing everyone, but the claim that it's "working" for the majority is a bit of a stretch. Think about the kids who are "passing" but not really learning—those who are compliant but not engaged. The system is good at producing students who can follow rules, but not necessarily those who can think critically or creatively. It's not failing in a catastrophic way, but it's not really preparing kids for the real world either. We need to focus on improving it, not overhauling it.
