How To Fix Public Education In 24 Hours
Reclaiming America For Christ ^ | April 2018 | Paul Blair

Posted on 04/07/2018 5:02:29 PM PDT by alexandriagreen

Instead of handing $13,240 a student to the State Department of Education and trusting them to manage it (which they obviously aren’t doing well), put that money into an educational savings account controlled by the family (it’s the people’s money anyway) that could only be spent on education

Then let all schools, public and private, compete for the best teachers and compete to earn clients (students) by the quality of their product. If parents want their children to be taught social justice, climate change and transgenderism, they can send their kids to those schools. For parents that prefer quality reading, writing, arithmetic, real science and history, they can send their kids to schools that emphasize those classes. The quality of education will be fixed overnight, and parental control will be returned.

Liberals hate choice.

Except when it comes to the choice of killing what is growing in th womb.

From the authors lips to God’s ears. The basic education crisis in America is second only to the invasion of illegals with fake news and Hollyweirism coming in a close 3rd and 4th. Then there are our fiscal debt and deficit issues...

OMG are people really this ignorant of school finance? So the average pupil expenditure is such-n-such. You think they actually spend that amount on each and every kid?!? YOUR normal kid hardly costs anything. Just a few kids [special needs, delinquents, kids with stay-at-home-illnesses, etc., it goes on and on] cost hundreds of thousands of dollars each to educate. That cost is averaged out among all. You CAN’T have the “average” amount spent on your kid as long as the lion’s share of the monies are ‘needed’ for those most expensive few. That money for YOUR normal kid isn’t there because they aren’t spending that amount on your normal kid.
