as a teacher in a public school a take severe umbrage to the blanket statement of "public schools are a joke".
I thinks that individuals may not be challenged anough to take schools seriously (i didnt) but remember we in the public school system have to try and reacher every student from the very high aptitide to the very low and just by sheer numbers we will inadvertantly lose some students- it happend its not right it should happen but it does--- but to condem a entire systems of which you were a receipient of a free education demeans all of those teacher who have worked very hard to bring education to their students-
Public education is a ever evolving animal- there will be instances that it does not reach all of its intended subjects (students) then we have to change, create new classes change teaching styles what ever it takes
I just feel very stongly that the argument provided above is an insult to those of us teachers, engineers and others involved in any form of education
