Seriously? With that statement, you are implicitly admitting that the entire K-12 public school system is worse than useless, and serves only to piss away trillions of taxpayer dollars. >> The public school system doesn't educate, and should be eliminated. >> > > We need presidents who only went to > private schools and thus got a "proper" > education. Like Barak Obama. Private schools in general share the structure of how public schools operate. Children should be home schooled. At the beginning of biological adolescence, they can take a test that separates the top 1/3rd in intelligence from the rest. That 1/3rd is eligible to go to something resembling elite boarding high schools. Only the top 1/3rd of THOSE students graduate, with the top ten percent of them being eligible for elite education at a university. Suffice it to say, Obama never would have gotten into high school under such a system. Most people would rely on apprenticeships after homeschooling, and then internships.
