I wish their were more competent teachers and public schools, too. Some teachers and group schools are better than others and some are downright destructive...just like homeschoolers. Excellence is not uniform in any walk of life.

No argument from me there.....I'd like to see

Academic standards for teachers as strict as those we impose on kids

Behavioral standards

Continuing education standards

COMMITMENT TO THE JOB AT HAND!!

And total destruction of the NEA.
