Horace's Compromise  

Definition(s)

  • A highpoint in U.S. concern over education, the 1980s was a decade awash in reports lamenting the fundamental unpreparedness of the schools for new global economic challenges. 1984 saw the publication of a rather different, if equally fundamental, rethinking of schooling: Theodore (Ted) Sizer's Horace's Compromise: The Dilemma of the American High School.
