>>nor would it be possible to fire and hire thousands of teachers in any reasonable length of time. <<
You’re kidding right?
Look, I’m a Homeschooling Mom. I’ve seen people who can’t think themselves out of a paper bag, watch children educate themselves by K12 Virtual School. With the internet, and on the school’s computers, those teachers would be obsolete. All they would have to do is contact K12 and they would be set up in a day.
Reagan didn’t hesitate to fire Air Traffic Controllers and replace them. You think teachers can’t be replaced? They can, in a heartbeat my FRiend.
New computer...$500
Internet.......$30 X 12 months = $360
Cost of K12....??? maybe $1000 I would think much less?
Total....$1860 per student per year
That is much less then the $11,300 per student the local public school is spending...or a savings of $9,440 per student or a saving of $13,700,000 just for the local school district...think of how much the taxes could be reduced.
