  A simple estimate in terms of currency units shows that a meaningful
educational reform process can be launched and sustained over many generations
of teachers with support of parents of students. In the estimate, the steady
inflow of resources from parents provides support for advanced studies by
teachers. Not to waste the resources on spurious activities, the estimated
inflow proceeds directly from the parents as clients to the providers of
required reform program. The providers are the experts in various disciplines
who excel in helping teachers become great. Their services to teachers are
ultimately assessed by parents on the basis of changes in behavior of children.
The resulting reform program grows slowly from small seeds. The running cost of
the reform process to parents appears surprisingly low while its development
leads to the desired changes over time.
