The proof is there....the current system has not done the job.
Just look at acheivement and rankings of US education VS what it was when we were at the top.
Ok..
Which means what ?

Teachers all suck ?

Breakdown if the family ?

Poor curriculum, which is LOCAL ?

Which.....frankly as a mechanic with a car..if you don't know how it works, how can you fix it ?

I am not being a wise guy. I have been intimately involved with education much of my life (not as a teacher) so I recognize the problems. I have no dog in the race, but she sure looked to me as a Billionaire who really knew very little about public education.

Education is mostly a local issue, and when "we were at the top" the Federal Govt was less involved, not more.
