I have quite a few thoughts about how public schools might improve... Nonetheless, there is something about arguing with people who have already made up their minds and place blame entirely on the public school system for poor student performance - well, it brings out the contrarian in me. Kids have been doing and are doing poorly in places where families and communities are functioning poorly. And public schools are being asked to be parents, social workers and teachers - They are shackeled with mandated layers of bureaucracy then vilified and described as "inefficient" when they fail to do it all. |
Well you apparently have your mind made up and that is different how? Nevertheless, when an issue has been thoroughly examined someone SHOULD make their mind up on it. Why waffle when you are convinced of the answer? Secondly, if you had read all of my posts then you would know that I blamed parents as well and addressed why vouchers address that problem. Schools failed long before the "bureaucracy" was put in place. Really, that is an excuse, time to move on.
