The waste called schools

Nothing will improve the schools until the Union NEA is eliminated from the teaching "profession"

They could care less about the schools.

And, notice that a lot of the good kids are "Home Schooled" - I wonder why.

Just look at the closest schools to "Our Leadership"
in Washington DC. The kids would probably be better off if they didn't go to school.

Exactly my sentiments, DC

I have two kids in pvt school - paying the requisite 'arm and a leg'. Actually it IS a double(*) payment - so, the arm and a leg metaphor is particularly appropriate.

(*) after property taxes that support local schools.

But it's worth it! You only get one shot at educating your child(ren). You can't go back AFTER they're in trouble and ask for a do-over.
