In my opinion the worst thing is disengaged people who don’t waste time on school elections or attending school board meetings. Its easier to blame than do.
People around here are crying about taxes going up so the school can build a practice gym they don’t need but less than a thousand people of the 4000 odd households in the district bothered to show up to vote. Of those who voted and estimated 70% were school employees.
We can talk homeschooling all we want but the simple fact is that only a very tiny fraction will do it and the public system will continue pumping out the marxists of tomorrow.
If people truly want to get rid of the public schools, gaining control of them is the first step.
Also not everyone can afford to send their kids to private school
That's better than nothing, but not much more.
Vouchers are the only meaningful transitional plan to educational freedom.
Otherwise, homeschool. It was the best deciaion we could have made regarding our children's overall well-being.
