First and foremost, I am now an adult but I am product of the American public School system, where back in the day I got a wonderful education. But today we are so bogged down with testing our kids then teaching our kids. Plus, we have states that keep wanting pull money out of education which is forcing over crowding in classrooms for teachers because other teachers are getting out of the profession and these postitions aren't being filled. I know this because I know individuals who have worked in the education system, they have conveyed to me that there are wonderfuld teachers and educators in the public school system that are being taken for granted and having too many obsticles placed in front of them. So, getting rid of public education isn't the answer, letting teachers go back to teaching kids like they did back in the day, not teaching a test and giving them the funding that is righfully theirs without having it cut from state budgests along with the tools needed to do so would help to put education back on track where it should be.
