Concerning: Grading system miffs some parents Measuring child’s performance is difficult, some say By Jean Torkelson, Rocky Mountain News October 29, 2007 My wife and I too have gone our rounds with the public school system. Our kids are now in a very well put together charter school.
The only way the public school system and “educators” (I use the term loosely) will get the message that they really don’t have a clue, is for parents to start yanking their children out of the schools and putting them into charter schools, home schools, and private schools; and then to pass the school voucher system.
Maybe when the public school system starts to go bankrupt then they will get the message that they are not doing our kids any favors by the majority of the “reforms” they are continuing to force upon parents.

you cant do that as it would be competition and the unions will not stand for that to happen. everyone has to equal the lowest person around to be fair.
