We have some of the BEST teachers in the US. The poor quality of education offered to CA students is NOT about dumb teachers.

1. Administrations and social regulations tie the hands of teachers. We need 80% of education funds for THE CLASSROOM – currently only 60% goes there! Deplorable.

2. Grade schools – A – F – let parents know how their school is doing and allow them to move to better, higher performing campuses. When parents know of poor grades they will leave – underperforming schools will be forced to close.

3. Fast-track charter schools – where schools are closed, give parents an option to quickly convert to a charter school and make learning a priority instead of hanging onto a failing school system stuck in old-school style poor-performance
