Too many students are still falling through the cracks.
That's according to the president of the company that administers the ACT test.
Education Secretary Duncan says the latest revelation that test scores haven't improved much suggest that states need to raise their academic standards and commit to education reforms.

Mississippi, which has the lowest education level in the country, also has the lowest ACT test scores in the country.

Now education leaders plan to throw every book they can at the young ones.
This time, we don't have 30 years to wait.
That's my Point of View.
