I’d first ask: What is the goal of education?
Interestingly, the issue is never discussed by the GOP candidates, and certainly GOP promotion of charter schools would gain them some votes from places typically Democrat.
Expecting Marxists to be consistent on anything is a fool’s errand, because lying is the only tool in their kit.
The teachers were hired to do a job and they clearly failed. They should be fired.
DISMANTLE the Dept. of Indoctrination.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism

The number one issue in America today is our borders.
Education needs to revert back to local control, period. The Federal and State departments of Ed should be disbanded. Yeah, that’s gonna happen.
This is how the government runs the healthcare system. If it's good enough for the health care system, it's good enough for the education system.
Hillary says she’ll close all below average schools. After 4 years of her reign, we’d only have 6.25% of all schools still open, which would all be populated by only Clinton, Bush, Obama, Congressional, and media grandchildren only.
The rest of us will need to home school and use religious schools.
I’m in.
I say it makers vs takers and the gov’t policies that favor creation of the latter.
Stop immigration and most problems go away.
Oh, yeah .... /s
If conservatives had a stronger influence in the nation and via education many of these minority and all kids could be taught the principles of it and the DemonRat party would be sunk low and the RINO’s too.
I’m now against federal dollars going for private schools. I’ve seen too many times non-profit organizations compromise thier values to continue to receive public money.

It’s free and far better than public schools. Many of them actually use it now.
Public schools are a 19th century paradigm that outlived its usefulness at the turn of the century.
What ever happened to the apprentice programs the were once available for the young folk..???
The number one issue is education of kids from low income families?
That’s just crazy
Anything liberals control always end up the same. Costing more while increasingly becoming less effective.
@John C. Goodman/Townhall/GOP/Dems - Wrong question because it's none of your collectivist business.
Two of the largest contributors to Democrat causes in both effort and money are the AFT and the NEA.
Their impact has been lessened in states with right to work laws as union membership is no longer compulsory.
The primary concern of Democrats is not the education of children, but the perpetuation of that cash cow.
“...the administration’s Justice Department fought a losing battle in court in an effort to stop Louisiana’s new state-wide voucher program.”
The voucher program was instated, and ferociously defended by the Jindal administration.
And it will no doubt be dismantled by the new Democrat governor, John Bel Edwards, whose first appearance after the November election was at a gathering of teachers’ union muckety-mucks.
