Yes and very political. NYT doesn't mention that high bully and suicide rates in Japanese schools.

Does Japan have a teacher's union? ;) One thing Japan does not have is a flood of non-Japanese speaking immigrants.
If you look at America's public schools there are basically two kinds: those that are doing a pretty reasonable job and achieving a decent outcome and those that are overwhelmed by non-English speakers.
