I believe we need to make all the changes to our Education System that have been stalled by our Politicians and School Boards, thanks to the Unions’ bribery of both.
We need to do it all at once because there is no downside, as we are the worst in the world—ranked 40th out of 40—and the most expensive in the world. We have nothing to lose, as I think we can only go up. Who thought we could be here, though?
We need a national Voucher system. The School Boards are the biggest problem here—NIMBYs—and our teachers are better educated in WOKE ideology by design. This is done at the expense of the basics: reading, writing, mathematics, science, and history.
Trump is a very good beginning at lowering the Wokers’ influence, but in Education, we all need to do a lot more as parents and grandparents. The Unions and the Education Boards are to Education as Iran is to Democracy. I believe in organized labor totally, but the teachers need to rule themselves with the parents—using unpaid leaders who serve short terms, supported by paid support systems and organizations.
If they paid $25.00 a year each, that’s an estimated $120M a year, with no contribution to any political party. Get rid of all the unnecessary mid-level management and Union workers—there are more of them than teachers.
We need to go to the Private sector as much as possible, like Charter schools, especially for the less fortunate. That’s where we can improve our education the most. The A & B students won’t give us nearly the improvement in numbers as improving the C, D, and F students.
Using support like the Khan Academy, which has tens of thousands of free courses that can support students and teachers, is key. They are developing an incredible AI homework support platform, which is free or nearly free.
My Pop Quiz is: How long do we have to fix all our kids’ deserving education?
