Privatization of education?  How can it work?  Competition to get into certain areas...federal funding for free and reduced lunch students so they don't get kicked to the curb.  There has to be a way to make sure that dirty, smelly, unintelligent Johnny doesn't get set aside in the education race for students.  Who is going to pay for the education?  Taxes based upon the number of students in the district?  Parents have to fund their student's education?  Sports are going to be a draw for students to attend one school over another.  Private enterprise pays for the busing...

So for this to work, you have to get government out of the education business except to keep track and help out the poor and downtrodden who would be treated as garbage if they can't pay...

Any other thoughts?

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog about fixing the education system. I am hoping to hear from others how they think we should fix the broken system of learning and teaching. I get so aggravated hearing from the top of the food chain how things need to be be changed but not getting any clear instructions or reasons for making these changes. How hard is it to work WITH educators and parents when making changes instead of making broad changes that look good only on paper.

What do you think???
