Eliminate the NEA and all teachers unions. Take the $ sent to gov't schools and give it to families that choose to do it themselves.
We home schooled our 4 kids. But here in MA, we were required to be a satellite school, connected to our local public school district. So technically, our kids were "attending" the gov't school, but doing so at home. So the school continued to get the funding and we got nothing from them. We had the privilege to pay taxes to support the school and then pay more money to buy our own curriculum.

WHAT A SCAM! And yes, I am yelling.
isolating kids from each other is a mistake..
school used to be a very bonding experience and taught kids how to cope with others..
take our schools back and end the Dept. of Education
