The first thing that needs to happen is the abolishment of the local
school board system. Politics and education do not mix well.

Schools should be run by a panel of professional educators, with some
oversight by a panel of parents, to keep things honest.

I have two problems with this. First, professional educators (read NEA) are
a big part of the problem. Second how are you going to have the parental
oversite without the elections? And if you only let parents run for the
offices or worse only let parents vote then you get into the whole taxation
without representation thing.


Where would a business be if consumers of the product got to elect
the board controlling the company every two years.

That is a problem with all elected governments.


Decisions are usually contrary to stability and consistency of the
educational process.

The other thing that needs to be done is get the educational
professionals out of the decision making loop that are not currently
in the classroom. Some of the people making decisions at the state
and national school board level are so out of touch with reality,
that teachers still in the classroom actually laugh at some of the
programs they institute. The decisions they make are so opposite to
what is needed, laughing is all you can do, or you will cry.

Most school administrators come up from the ranks of teachers.
