A couple of people had very good points here about 'overhauling' the educational system in general...
If we can spend BILLIONS to go to IRAQ to chase after non-existant weapons of mass destruction then we can DAMN WELL SPEND THAT MONEY ON A BROKEN EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM...
Teachers need to be amoung our highest paid members of society... that way we'll get the best and brightest... It will also demonstrate the value that the US places on education...
Require that parents volunteer in the class room at least once a month... so that they SEE what is going on at school... employers would be required to pay employees for the days they spent at school...
I could go on... security? YES absolutely... demonstrate visually that this is a school and a SAFE ZONE... leave your 'shit' outside these doors... Our students and teachers must be protected and revered!!!
