OK. Suggestions.
Eliminate Federal intrusion in the business of educating children.
All taxes used for education need to be equally distributed by the states to all public schools.
Rich or poor, they get the same financial support. The states should NOT mandate a curriculum beyond Reading (phonics), Math (rote memorization), English (comprehension, structure, spelling), History and Civics. Leave all other curriculum decisions to the local school board.
School Board members and members of their families may not be employed in any way by the school.
School Board members should be held criminally and civilly liable for any mis-mal or non-feasance by Administrators.
No more staggered elections for School Board members: All up for election at the same time every 4 years.
Implementation of Life Skills, The Arts, and The Trades to start in middle school, continue into high school. Not all kids need to go to college. In fact, most college grads, unless they are in medicine or some of the other Arts, did not get much value from advanced education other than a networking ability. High School grads with 7 years of Life Skills, Arts, or Trades come out of k-12 with a running start. This says nothing about catching the attention of some kids early and instill in them a desire to learn, something our schools neglect today. If a kid is not a natural high achiever he is written off early by most schools and "educators" (There are exceptions...I know)
How's that for starters? Do I have any votes for me being King?
