There are no simply structural answers here.


Shows you how far apart we are. I think nothing lasting can be done without structural changes. It will take a State with a conservative legislature so strong that they will put in "Right to Work" laws, and forbid Public employee strikes. Then hire a "Bratton" to put in accountability on the part of the school Admins.

An impossible goal, I admit. But, because it is impossible, the schools will continue to go downhill.

The fact that the Democratic Candidates are now avoiding Education like it was a "third rail" shows you that they know how bad the schools have got. But they can't fix them. They owe their soul to the Teacher's Unions.
