I've heard the US school system isn't great these days.  I've heard they've actually lowered standards so that they can claim more students are graduating. When I was growing up, I often heard about how students in the US were behind students in other countries, particularly in things like math & scence & such. Rather than improving that, it seems like the school system is making it worse.
