It is a given that the public schools are a mess; however, the last place
to get ideas to fix them is from the resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave and
his cronies.

They have created enough problems.

I suggest sitting down and thinking of a solution that will work. What
that is, I don't know, but I do know an across the board fine for
missing a meeting is ridiculous.

Somewhere, somehow, parents need to be educated about children's
behavior, and how it affects them and their classmates, as well as
their later chances in the world.

How you do that with the severely uneducated, I don't know, unless
they already have a drive to have their children become educated to
escape their morass. Fining people with no sense of society for being
being rude is not going to work.
