Bingo , government propaganda, the past few days a school back east I believe wanted the boys to dress as girls and the girls as boys, why, well they stressed bullying however it seems there would be better methods to get the point across. No doubt some parents make little effort to help there kids, they seem more interested in talking on cell phone for hours with co-workers. Single parent, broken homes all hurt our education system, however in my mind that does not give government the right to take over our children. One of our 24 hours news media idiots actually said the children belong to the community, wrong I do not want your socialist views flowing down to my children. My advice to all new parents sacrifice and seek out alternative methods of schooling you won't be sorry.The sooner WISE parents figure out that the public schools are not the best education option - the better it will be for kids, parents , and our country.
Folks, we have tried public(government) education for the past 2 centuries in America.
Education now takes back seat to social indoctrination. THAT is the problem with public education.
... At least take an active role.
But are you sure that was the curriculum or a teenage girl not really paying attention in History class?
Public school. I envision the settlers building a building. Used for educating the children and for meetings of all sorts. The teacher was interviewed and hired or fired by the parents of the children of school age. Local control. That's how it works.

That is how it works, sort of. The community pays taxes in order to fund building of schools. The community elects a school board. That school board hires administrators. Administrators hire teachers. IF the community (parents) are involved with their child's education like they should be, then they should know whether or not the teachers and administrators are doing their job to the community's standards. If not, then the community demands change and the teacher or administration is replaced.
The problem comes from a few things. State and federal government involving themselves in matters that should be a local issue (standardized testing, etc.). The other, and biggest issue, is lack of parental involvement (ie leave it up to the schools to teach the children what should be taught at home long before the child enters school).
Schools should be an assist to what is learned at home, NOT a replacement.

Tenure, teacher's unions, etc..............
Local input is all but muted.
System is busted.
That I'd be fine with. And let the 'rents pool their money for it.
While you're at it, how about those people with bridges in their counties pay the bridge fee on registration and not make everyone pay it.
That's a common expression when people consider or criticize home schooling: the social interaction
Who are they interacting with in government school? Some kids with minds destroyed by Ritalin. Kids who have no stability at home, no values. That's the social interaction at public school.
Vs sending them to a private/Christian school where people are raising their children deliberately, trying to prepare them properly for life. Or home schooling where you can meet with others of like mind. Plus home school kids still participate in sports and can be active at church.
Finally think of this...what percent of your schooling was a total waste, taken up by filler or disrupted by your crazy classmates? Did you work at the pace you were capable of or at the average pace due to being in a class of all abilities?
Not even similar. I can go out and use every bridge in the county right now if I feel like it. There's no use I can put the schools to.
Yet when I lived in Yoakum county, I paid the fee, and there isn't a single bridge in the county.
