Answer: A Nation at Risk
Step-by-step explanation:
''A Nation at Risk: The Imperative for Educational Reform'', was a report on the state of American education submitted in 1983 by the U.S. National Commission on Excellence in Education.
The report showed that the quality of education in US schools were declining as students were picking electives that were easier but of less quality.
It spurred to a movement called ''Back-to-Basics'' where supporters argued that schools needed to go back to teaching subjects like reading, writing, science and math because it was argued that it would make students work harder and be more knowledgeable which would enable them succeed in life after they leave school.
