"We don't need no education,
We don't need no thought control." - Pink Floyd (Another Brick in the Wall part.2)
This section is devoted to Education. As a former High School teacher, I have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly
side of public education. I have found 5 principles that are completely ignored by Education specialists. Taking
these principles to heart would, I believe, make a radical difference in public education.
1. School is NOT Day Care! |
|
Most parents love it when their kids start kindergarten, it means day care costs will decline. |
|
2. Quantity is NOT Quality! |
|
Why are there 10th graders who read like 2nd graders? |
|
3. You do NOT have a right to an education! |
|
Education is not a guaranteed right by any constitution |
|
4. Education does NOT create society! |
|
What the heck are we teaching our kids any ways? |
|
5. Society DOES create education! |
|
The real reason our schools suck: You can tell a lot about a society simply by looking at its schools. |
