A roadmap to fixing our FAILING Public education system
Imagine if the resources spent on the Federal Department of Education was instead sent to the states?
Michigan has more School districts than counties, has had to (as a state) take over whole systems that cannot manage the resources given them by taxpayers, and is delivering CRAP insofar as outcomes.
Let me state this comparison as clearly as I can .. If you had a roofer fix your leaky roof, and the first time you had a light sprinkle you find yourself putting buckets around the house, what would you do? You might have them try to repair, but most folks are going to get someone new.
Let me remind you that our kids can’t read. Not like they should anyhow. I drafted the below roadmap last night. It is a response to my own personal assessment of what doesn’t currently work in our public education system. It was inspired to this point as I spoke with a couple of retired legislators who may or may not agree with the entire premise.
