After the Feds pull out will the patriotic states take advantage of the vacuum to redesign their curicullum to really teach the 3Rs, the Constitution, real history, and American civics?

I am betting the Lyin’ Ryan/McLame/Mittens GOPe wing of the Republican Party will fight this tooth and nail.

That’s why vouchers are such a powerful tool. No guaranteed State $, earn them or the parents vote with their feet.

Next move, disbanding Dept. of Education? I hope so.

I don't think he has the guts to do it. Maybe he'll prove me wrong ...

“That is “pulling out”? Why not today? It’s pretty simple. Close the doors and send everyone home?”

Because life is not simple and we are a nation of laws.

“I would submit that the problems with public education don’t always originate at the federal level”.

I would guestimate that 90% of the problems in education start with the parent. The rest is mostly from administrative bloat, and union corruption. Most of my freinds’ kids can read at a second grade level and do math problems before they get anywhere near kindergarten

LOL! Next time Freepers talk to anyone and they start piping off about how great Demonrats are we should ask them as earnestly as possible "Can I see your pussy hat?"

I’m of a mind to just give everyone an SAT-like test when they turn 16 or 18 and let the score show what kind of student they’ve been. A minimum score in each area (math, English, civics, science) for federal graduation endorsement requirement, tested on real knowledge, no school requirement, just pass the darn test.

I love it but wonder if states and cities will increase our property taxes like crazy over this? I sure hope not but I don’t put anything past them.
