With far too many of our public schools producing students unprepared for further education and the jobs of the 21st Century the number-one challenge for American businesses has become the availability of high-quality human talent. . .Businesses and chambers of commerce at the local level can help reverse this trend by assisting the dynamic growth of public charter schools that are making a difference in the lives of millions of young students.
