I'm not against Federal funding in principal, although I believe only about 7% of school budgets on average comes from the Federal budget...and there's little return on the investment.
Schools today are struggling to meet NCLB requirements and can't focus on quality overall.
I think our entire system needs to be re-tooled to meet the needs of the Global economy.
I'd like to see the teachers union done away with, and higher education dramatically expanded...we need to get some business people in there to focus on improving operational effeciencies and quality of service...rather than trying to scale a non-scalable system.
