Public schools need competition, competition is always good. make them compete for tax money with private schools and home schoolers (would be nice to have the home schooled kid go in to take a standardized test and based on the test result get a discount on the school tax the parent is paying...
Look up home school vs public school, the home schooled kids do better;

HOMESCHOOLERS SCORE BETTER AT EXAMS LIKE THE ACT AND SAT, COMPARED TO PUBLIC SCHOOLERS, AS PER NHERI.
These are crucial exams conducted by colleges and universities for...
So my point is, education in rival countries such as China and Russia is ahead of US education. Students there are more advanced in math and science, this will not be good for USA in the long run. public education here is too easy and hands out too many participation trophies and standards are...
When I got to the USA I was learning the same exact stuff that I learned 2 years ago in Russia in math and science. I basically wasted 2 years learning the same thing and then was back on grade level 2 years later before the US school was teaching stuff I havent seen yet
Every subject other than English but 6 months in I got close to perfect scores on the Texas standardized test in Reading/Writing. Learned English very fast because I was embarrassed of not speaking the language. 0 accent now, worked very hard to not have an accent
When they made little kids wear masks that 100% pushed us over to homeschooling, I saw many parents disagree with muzzling up their little kids but still sent them off with the rest of the the herd instead of standing up for their kids.
There were lots of teachers here protesting schools...
Education here is a lot easier/behind pace our top rivals, China and Russia. Here standards are lowered to make everyone pass and participation trophies are handed out left and right.
I went to school in Russia K-5 and when I can to the US the teachers could not believe how far ahead I was in...
Most common excuse for not home schooling kids I hear is no time/need to go to work. More people would consider it I think if both parents didn't have to work full time.
It's sad that so many people think they can't do a better job than the government at teaching their kids
We have a couple of public school teacher friends, one left her job to home school her kids as she did not want her kids going to the school she got to see first hand at what goes on. The other one highly recommends we do anything other than the public school and wishes she could leave the job...
my son goes to piano lessons now, making good progress. I speak Russian and my wife speaks Vietnamese, the grandmas are the ones really teaching the other languages, we focus on English.
How good is your German and trombone skill today?
how many students does a public school teacher have?
7 classes of 30-40 per day? what maybe 200 students per teacher. 7 kids would be a breeze to handle compared to a class of 30+
my local school district is complaining that they are 678 teachers short for the upcoming year.
There are many resources to teach the more advanced subjects, homeschooling programs, tutors etc, going by a textbook. An average adult should be able to grasp and learn those subjects as they teach the child, stay one chapter ahead of the child
