Something very basic needs to be cleared up. No child has a right to an education. The public school systems need to be dismantled. Tax money for education should not be collected one more day. Only those children whose parents care enough about a private education should get one. Children with parents who don't care about education, shouldn't be given one.
(Herein lies one of the biggest failures in the present educational system. Children from traditional homes with parents who want and desire an education for them, are forced to attend schools full of barbarians' children who don't care about education.)

The quality of education would improve dramatically if the above criteria was followed.

Some of the benefits of selective education would be: a disciplined learning environment, cultural harmony between all involved, young people growing up and maturing sooner to be responsible citizens instead of mass produced sheeple, and people without children would not have to pay a dime for any brat's education. These are just a few of the positive aspects.

Now flame away you bleeding heart left-wing wienies who don't like your sacred cow being verbally abused.

That's up to the public, isn't it? This is a democracy.

I agree with this. It was bad when I was in school (when they actually tried to teach academics), and it's gotten much, much worse now.

The best class I ever had in high school was one for "advanced" students - the first ever in the district. On the first day of class, the teacher called for attention and everyone shut up and paid attention. We all looked at each other in surprise; we were used to the teacher taking ten minutes or more just to get everyone quiet. Needless to say, we were all interested in learning, and it showed.

Now, with so many in the schools with kids that should not be there at all, the situation is often useless.
