Fixing Public Schools is akin to fixing Government. I will NEVER be fixed and will always be broke.

Joe - You say parents need to be more involved and I agree with you. Except, I am a case where I AM involved and my son still did poory and it seemed to be a direct reflection of how poor of a teacher he had. When I tried to get to the bottom of the problem I was a trouble make and unwelcome at the school. Then the "You have no idea how hard it is to be a teacher" crap began.


Pulling my kid out of public school and enrolling him in a private Monessori school was the best move I have ever made. My 3 y/o is enrolled in the same school now and will never see public school.

BTW - My 3 y/o is learning about Asia this month, if you saw what they are teaching 3 year olds in this school you would be blown away.

I am VERY thankful I am able to afford to pull my kids from the public mess and get them in a private school where they are guaranteed to thrive.
