I believe a school shouldn't have to sell snacks to pay for field trips. I believe a school shouldn't have to make the choice between keeping a reading specialist and a nurse. Decision makers must give schools the money necessary to provide the resources and tools necessary for ALL children to learn. Despite what politicians say, it's not easy to do more with less. I believe preschool should be free and mandatory for ALL children. Kindergarten should also be mandatory. I believe parents should be held more accountable for their children's education. It's about time parents share this accountability with teachers and administrators. We must provide tools and resources to parents so that they will be able to send their children to school ready to learn. Billions are being spent overseas to "build" democracy. How much money should be spent on "building" a life long learner? How many bags of Chex Mix has the Department of Defense had to sell lately?
