Overseas schools and "Teaching the American Way"

Hi all,
Our director (at the American Cooperative School of Tunis) put a copy of
this article in our mailboxes this week. Written by Jay Mathews of the
Washington Post, it discusses how overseas schools are working to emulate
the American school approach - the same one so criticized by the US media,
politicians, etc. as a failure.

Enjoy!

PS, I went to Sicily for spring break and have posted some photos online if
you're interested. I also have a travelogue that I'd be happy to pass on to
anyone who'd like to hear about my travels.
