The American educational system is a danger to our freedoms. We have to gut this system and replace the educators with non partisan teachings.

29 five year olds in a classroom is absolutely ridiculous. That's not even teaching; that's just making sure no one actually gets killed or seriously injured.

You do it then. Please, go for it. Go into the worst, most needy and depressed parts of America and teach 29 kindergartners every blessed day, day after day, for barely a decent wage. But "teach", of course is a misnomer. What you're really teaching many of these children are the very basics of the basics: how to put on their own clothes. How to share. How to be decently human.

29 of them, undoubtedly all by yourself, because the district cannot afford aides either.

Really?

You signing up for this?

EDUCATION is important.
Good teachers should be paid equally across US (w/in cost of living index), and it should reflect their education & value to society.
