[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Back to basics.  Sports, music, PE, AAP, all frills must go.  Agree about keeping the counselors.  Property taxes should be raised.  [/quote] Says the person who has never set foot in a school.  Children would be miserable losing many of their physical and creative outlets that also have great inherent value in their own right.  Teachers would never have a break, and would burn out quickly.  As a parent, I would be furious if my children's education did not include the arts, and physical education.  And for those who suggest, those subjects are self-pay, are we really suggesting that only the rich kids deserve to have these vital subjects be part of their education?  All children deserve a well rounded education.[/quote]

If these other subject are so vital why do these degree render crap pay? If you want to learn about drama or painting fluffy clouds you should pay for it out of pocket. Things like English, Math, History, Science are the things that are important and should be everyone's focus. I would also push for more of STEM focus because that is what the future holds.[/quote]
