“In a city like NYC where all kinds of public transportation is available. I agree completely. But what about in the country where there is no public transportation?”

Smaller schools that are neighborhood oriented. I don’t live in an urban area. There’s no reason for kids to be bused to a large school

New York is spending massive sums of money on an education system that has a near 50% drop put rate and graduates students who are functioning at an 8th grade level with may being functionally illiterate.

Perhaps the is overspending and the fact that everyone responsible is spending all their time and effort grubbing for money and not educating children.

Children are no longer the purpose of our education system in these cities, they are props used to extort money for the grifters in the system.

And people complained about North Kansas City schools wanting to spend about $1,000 per bus to rig some of the fleet (long distance buses) for WiFi.
