This is why I moneschool all 3 of my kids.
The school system is FUCKED!! They are no longer schools but indoctrination centers.
Where the parents give their kids to the government to become the good little Politically correct sheeple that they need to be for big daddy government and the NEA.
I refuse to do that, I will NOT allow them to turn my children into what they so desperately need. Sheeple with no thinking skills that can be easily manipulated and pushed in the direction that they want them to go.
THey no longer teach the children to think, and have not for years, they teach them rote learning, reading, barely, math, barely, etc, etc. Just enough learning to be able to operate a machine, or put work on some production line.
And of course do what their bosses, or people of auhtority wish them to do.
Sheeple, little sheeple, that is what they put out of their indoctrination centers, and I will NOT allow them to do that to my kids.
Damn, moneschool=homeschool, damn, I must be tired this morning or something.
You said:
Twenty five percent of public school teachers in D.C. and Baltimore send their kids to private schools.
-------
Reverse the stats. 75 percent do not. 75 percent in that war zone like their schools.
I would have thought that 95 percent of DC teachers would go private.
Education in America is locally controlled. Most like ‘their schools’ and believe some other school is messed up. Education is up to families.
The dysfunctional will never go to private schools or home school, everyone else can opt out and go private if they choose. (If you cannot afford education you cannot afford a child or five).
I’m not here to defend public education, I believe means-testing, not vouchers, are needed, however anyone today can send a child to private school if they want to. If not then sell your second SUV.
Oops, I left out this smiley which I don’t know how to post....
