  The Galileo Project | Science | Benedetto Castelli
Antonio Castelli was born in Brescia, Italy, in 1578 and took the name Benedetto upon entering the Benedictine order in 1595.
It was this occasion that prompted Galileo to write a long letter to Castelli on the subject of science and religion, which was later expanded into the Letter to the Grand Duchess Christina.
Both versions of the letter circulated in manuscript, and the Letter to the Grand Duchess was printed in Strasbourg in 1636.

 bg1639: Executive Summary, Progress on School Choice in the States
The nation spends more than $422 billion each year on elementary and secondary education, yet the results of the most recent National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) tests in math, science, reading, history, and geography were deeply disappointing.
Moreover, America's children have fallen behind many of their international peers on tests of core academic knowledge, particularly in math and science.
Despite higher than average per-pupil expenditures, American 8th graders ranked 19th among their counterparts in 38 countries in math and 18th in science on the most recent international comparison of proficiency, the Third International Mathematics and Science Study-Repeat (TIMSS-R) of 1999.
