The schools of United States are in dire need of Federal help for upgrading the education structure within the country. The quality of education is tremendously getting affected by the overcrowding of students in the classrooms. A like story you can read in Weblobbying.com, where the author described the erosion of the learning atmosphere in the schools of New York. Below is the link of the same for further reference:

Hope, the Federal and the State administrations come up with effective solutions very soon and help in restructuring the entire education system in America.
