Exactly! !! But the union, teacher's ,and BOE will not allow it. I just don't get it. Look around at ANYTHING government does. Something that will save money and get awesome results they Don't want. Keep doing the asinine thing. It's ALL political. You wonder why private schools do better?? People pay and expect results.
