21rst century education

Politicians are cutting funds to public education. For American students to be competitive in the 21rst century global market they need to have a quality education. Legislatures need to fund schools first.

Americans believe every student should be eligible for a free public education. The sad truth is our government doesn't want to use our tax dollars to pay for that education. We are creating a society of haves and have nots based on the educational opportunities available to our children.

We need to be outraged at how other countries are outpacing the United States of America in prioritizing the educating of their children. The other industrial nations are making education one of their top goals, currently America is not.

We need to be outraged at how other countries are outpacing the United States of America in educating their children. We need to have our elected officials fund our schools and teachers. We can not expect our students to excell in their studies when we aren't providing them with the tools they need to exceed.
