American Schools Get a Failing Grade

How American Schools Fail Our Children

Would you send your child to a school that doesn't teach them, properly? Would you want your tax dollars to go toward a Principal's dinner, instead of needed books and supplies? Did you know that the FCAT wasn't really made to qualify or judge your child's performance? If your son or daughter had a deficit in an area, would you allow them to be condemned for it, publicly? Would you move to an area that 'claimed' to have the best schools, if you knew the test that determined this - was fixed? 

If you're sending your child to a public school, you're already forcing your child to deal with these situations, and more!
Have you ever sat inside your child's classroom, for more than a day? If you did, you would clearly see that the educational system isn't even close to what the Board of Education, or your Government, claims. In fact, the board of education doesn't even know what goes on, inside your child's classroom. It's not like they visit the schools, regularly, and when they do make a visit, everything is cleaned up, spic and span, prior to their arrival. Can you say, "Buffaloed?" 

Who Am I, and How Do I Know? 

Well...let's put it this way...for over four years, I sat inside numerous classrooms, for many hours a day - volunteering my time to my children’s' schools. Thanks to the lessons I learned in these so-called educational institutes, I eventually decided to home school my kids. 

Now, it's easy for our President to point the finger at the teachers, but according to the things I saw (in multiple schools,) it’s not the teachers that are the main problem. It's the system, itself! Mind you, there are a few teachers that need to up their skills, a bit, especially in regards to spelling, but they aren't the main problem. The big problem is the way things are run, and who gets to be the 'big dog' in the schools. 

Let me give you an idea of what I actually saw, and in what period of time. I was in my children’s' schools for a period of approximately 8 hours a day, 5 - 6 days a week, four years in a row. I became the President of the PTA, and I worked very closely with the principals and teachers of each school.
