My answer is NO!

My family lives in a very "austere economically challenged environment" and we spend nearly one quarter of our income to private school our two children.

The PS teachers have no vested interest in education! Here some come to work hung over or drink while at work. Sometimes they just don't show up and the government doesn't have enough money for a sub. The kids are on their own at that point. My kids learn in private school and attend summer school when they don't meet academic standards. The teachers have a vested interest in my kids and they aren't afraid to use the word God or say "in God we trust." The school isn't religious nor is it anti religious, life is respected along with nature and respect up and down is the rule.

Teachers unions over protect the teachers "without a vested interest in the nations children" and the rules need rewritten to give them a vested interest.

Education in America should be one of the highest of priorities. Ignorance will turn America into a nation of grasshoppers unable to articulate why.
