Children can meet many states’ standards for【C4】______, Duncan says, and yet have no realistic【C5】______of flourishing in college. Indeed, he says, " most " U. S. high-school graduates are "unprepared" for college.

"Students in Estonia and Poland, " Duncan says, "【C10】______at roughly the same level as those in the U. S. ,【C11】______Estonia and Poland spend less than half as much per student. " But many higher-performing countries【C12】______higher teacher salaries rather than smaller class sizes.

A【C18】______of excellent replacements is Teach for America, which Duncan says has "broken the monopoly" of education schools and departments over the【C19】______of teachers.
