Right now our local school board is spending right at $20,000 per
student and the results can be called mediocre at best based on just
about any measure you can think of (college admissions, test scores,
graduation rate etc)

I assume you've brought that up at PTA meetings and have volunteered
to work toward improvements?

I have slammed into the brick wall of politics. I was active in the
group that threw out the god squad school board but that didn't stop
the entrenched bureaucracy, reduce administrative costs or get the
union to allow them to get rid of bad teachers. They just bring them
downtown and make them administrators.Their administratine staff is so
big now they had to buy a whole shopping mall to house them. After 10
years of fighting the system I just gave up.


I knew it.

The dregs of society usually end up in one or more of the following:

1) Motor vehicle bureau
2) School administration
3) Running a boy scout troop
4) Church committees

The only way to deal with them is to use shock, shame and humiliation.
