K-12 is a mess, it’s a teacher’s pay factory thanks to the unions. Educating kids? Well that’s not the priority.

Scholl reform should be a top national priority. I just hope that Trump talks this in year 5 and on. It’s definitely a 2nd term issue as parents and teachers will freak out. Teacher’s because their gravy train will disappear, parents because of the fear of the unknown - a better education for their kids.

Vouchers, merit pay, choice, charter schools have proven to slow. I’d start with making tuition to a private school tax deductible on your Federal taxes.

I would extend the tax deduction to all taxpayers.

If a citizen wanted to donate to a private school scholarship fund or to sponsor an individual child, ( even a non-relative), this should be his option.

K9 is what the public system is aiming at; education for days. Sit stay, roll over.
