Let me throw my 2 cents in. My wife was a teacher for over 20 years and a good one. She has helped out in some of the local schools since she was forced to retire because of illness. The teachers are being overwhelmed with Government intervention, lack of support from administration and apathy on the parts of Parents and Students. They are under paid and under prepared for handling all the problems they face in American classrooms today. So the really good educators are getting out and finding better jobs leaving us with increasingly less experienced and talented teachers. Is it any wonder our standards are slipping.
