SirVinny,

For one thing, there's been not enough funding for years. Examples, my kids have been in classes with as many as 35 students or more. The beginning of this year, my oldest son started classes at the local high school and some classes did not even have seats/desks for all the kids... they sat on window sills. Years ago when I lived in Southern CA, I sent all my kids to private school. They got a great education while there. I got weekly reports as to their behavior and performace so that if there were any problems I knew right away. My kids where honor students at that school. There were many extra curricular activities in which my kids (and most kids at that school) participate in, such as Karate, Drama, Music, Dance. When my older girls moved into junior high school/public school, things went immediately down hill. My oldest daughter actually finished in continuation school. But when she went onto college, she was again an A student. These are just a few examples, I could go on and on.
