We, as a nation, must come to some kind of agreement in terms of a National Standard for education. ALL of our children need to leave high school with one set of skills in math and the English language. We also need to have one set of standards for our teachers...they ALL need to be National Board Certified. This is the only point from which we can go forward. YES WE CAN!

i really hope that their is a way to help fix the miserable shape of our public schools. our future depends on it. i do very much believe it is a form of child abuse in it's current state.
