Here's another example of why schools are failing us in Baltimore
I'm sure this is generally the case throughout the country in some form or another. I don't have all the answers but I do feel an awful lot of money is being wasted on so many things other then the basics. Schools should not exist to feed, cloth nor introduce social ideologies. Let community groups address those needs elsewhere. Rather science, math, how to balance a bank account along with good spending habits. This is the kind of essential information young adults will need when they graduate. These should be the solitary goals. Nothing wrong with music, sports or other specialties, but w/o the basics schools are cheating kids out of a future. Even if these were eliminated there are plenty of those activities available outside school hours scattered throughout the community.
There are too many expensive so-called specialists for programs that go far beyond the original intent of providing a basic education. If public schools can't get their act together maybe it's time cut back till they do. This by restricting what administrative positions are allowed by law and disallowing funding for them.
