A politically correct environment seeks to avoid controversial issues by maintaining the status quo on matters related to workers in the education system while avoiding the best interests of the stakeholders, and it is for this reason that political correctness must be challenged on many issues in our school system, so that our children have a better chance for learning well and then living well. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book's focus is on using accountability to pressure the system toward implementing reforms necessary for winning. It deals with educational policies, which are controversial and also identified by others for being problematic, rather than classroom practices. The solutions, or recommendations, proposed are intended to ensure that policies align with the best interests of students, parents, and taxpayers rather than with those of the service providers.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJim Dueck, EdD, has a career in education spanning forty years of service as a teacher, principal, superintendent, and assistant deputy minister.
