Now... how to actually get suburban people to vote yes on the referendum to raise their own property taxes to get the school repaired...
We should just nationalize the schools and their funding, ridding us of thousands of inefficient and expensive local and regional administrations, pay the most highly qualified teachers a higher salary, give teachers the freedom to craft and administer their own curricula, and give students more freedom in their spare time and at school.
Don't worry, radical change is not even on the table with this or any viable administration. I'm just saying how things ought to be.
Not sure about now, but in the 80s, from 7th to 12th grade for me, I attended a federally funded USA school, and our average student tested in the top quartile of state funded schools nationwide.
