What Indians find when they move back to India

"The education system here is excellent. The kids have learned so much more here, I think, than in the U.S.”

Deepa Venkatesh on what she and her husband found when they moved to India from San Diego, quoted by National Public Radio here.

A superior education system is one reason why you get to talk to someone in India when you have problems with your computer. It’s also a reason why India’s economy has not been hit nearly as hard as ours by recent economic events.

This is why we cannot continue to accept low performing schools in the United States. We mortgage our kids’ futures otherwise. Right now, Indians have choices, and they clearly are exercising them, leaving upscale places like San Diego to find even better educational systems overseas.
