“Our current education standards are an embarrassing joke. This is the United States of America for heaven's sake and our system is so sub-standard compared with other developed nations. It's outdated by 50 years. All students should go to school year around. It's a ridiculous waste to leave them vacant for half a year. There should be way fewer "vacations" and days off for students and teachers. We pay dearly for the schools, teachers, etc., AND WE ARE NOT GETTING A RETURN ON OUR INVESTMENT!”
