You know, when we moved to Florida, we kept passing this one particular building and I finally asked my husband if it was a jail or a prison. He said it was the Junior High.

We home school. We moved from Texas where I felt the schools were pretty good. No public school for us here. We're happy.

At one time, public schools were absolutely beautiful -- at least in my neighborhood. I live next door to a middle school built in the 1930's which looks like it was built by Wren, the English architect. It has a beautiful court yard.
A town three miles down the road from me has an absolutely beautiful high school, probably built in the 20's, that looks like a college campus.

The architecture of many of today's public schools leaves a lot to be desired. Frankly, a lot of today's schools look like correctional facilities.
