About This Blog:

We plan to compare and contrast the education system in the United States with the education systems in Malawi, Kenya, Spain, Germany, Japan, and India. These comparisons will give American's an insight on how to improve the quality of K-12 public education grades in the United States. Researching the graduation rates, dropout rates, literacy rates, teachers salaries, and rates of students progressing to higher education in other countries will provide examples of the quality of their education which can be used to support new reforms in the American education system.



Raising Malawi with Madonna - You Can Help

Here is a video of international pop star icon Madonna discussing upcoming plans for her non-profit organization Raising Malawi. Madonna adopted a 13-month-old Malawian named David Banda in 2006 and since then she has taken a personal interest in Malawi. Her goal is to end the extreme hardship and poverty the orphaned children of Malawi endure by raising awareness so that the people of Malawi who understand the challenges their country faces can bring the changes they need.
