"No Size Fits All" is a book whose time has come―a book that offers a proposal that could revolutionize public school policies in the United States at the federal, state and local levels. The book calls upon Congress to require all public school systems that benefit from federal funding to offer parents and children a choice of alternative schools, exempt from the broadly unpopular Common Core testing regime, some of which would use the time-tested Montessori, Waldorf and Sudbury methods to give American students more freedom in determining what they study and when.
The politics of federal education policy has devolved into an all-or-nothing fight between defenders of a status quo that its critics condemn as oppressive and proponents of a school choice reform―vouchers, as proposed by Betsy De Vos―that its critics condemn as subversive. No Size Fits All interrupts this all-or-nothing argument with a humane and sensible alternative―one that could lay the groundwork for broad new consensus on federal education policy.
