My wife taught my daughter to read at 4. Public school could not teach my son so now we home school. Now my son is way ahead of public school. If you want to improve public school you need to close it down.

Not true. Public school can work.

#1. A strong PTA
#2. No union
#3. Teachers judged by standardized tests
#4. Merit pay
#5. Immediate and ruthless expelling of bad students

That’s all it takes. No states north of the Mason-Dixon have any of these aspects. Most states south have 1, 2, and 3.
