Money is not the answer and I have definitive proof that all you need is a good teacher that is dedicated to the children. Schools waste too much money on "teaching aides and instrumentation" rather than focusing on the level of skill of the instructors.

Pay teachers a competitive salary and give them a real curriculum to teach that is not infested with indoctrination and the problem will fix itself.

Professional teachers don't need to drug their students or attack the parents' "parenting skills". They motivate the children and cater to their specific learning styles and as a result achieve better results.
