>>>We spend more money per student than any other country.<<<
What’s worse, than the gross negligence in spending versus the disastrous return on investment (in the test scores) which is abysmal at best... is the brainwashing and propagandizing that takes place at the hands of leftist administrators, and leftist teachers, at all levels of education.
The supplanting of the parent’s role with surrogates.
The erasure of patriotism and citizenship.
The decades of damage done to our youth, in rotting their minds with the constant pushing of sexual permissiveness, and moral decay, that- is the true cost we’ve paid as a passive society in “educating” our children.
And then on top of that- children can’t even tie their shoes or add 3 + 3 and come up with 6 as the answer.
Getting rid of Common Core will be a good step forward but it will be a "long haul" cleansing the educational system of the liberal/socialist effects over the past 4 plus decades......
