It costs about $19,000 / year for public school per student in my town and about $12,000 / private school student and the private school gets little to no funding from the public school.

3:05 They have to take Latin!?! I took Latin in high school for two years, by choice (I had to insist, actually, since the district was trying to remove it from the schedule). It's one of the best decisions I ever made as a young person and it has actually helped me in a lot of ways, not just in my ability to comprehend what I am reading, but also in puzzling out other languages (since Latin is the root or parent language to many more modern ones). If I had a son, I'd move to Philadelphia, just to enroll him in Boys' Latin... well, probably not, but it would be a temptation. Good work, David Hardy, I hope your school flourishes!

I live in Ontario Canada. Our public schools have different school boards in one city. I as a parent can choose to send my child to a public, English Catholic,french Catholic or French Immersion. When I bought my house on my property taxes. I was given the option to chose what school board would receive my tax money. Each school board receives an X amount of money per student. While they are still top heavy and more expensive then charter schools, the boards still compete to get the most students in order to increase their funding. Hence the better the quality of education, the more students they get.

Charter schools are not a better choice. Private and charters are used as a dumping ground for kids that cannot cut it in general population schools. Most advanced degreed parents homeschool, elitist use alternative schools to keep out the poor and segregationists try to stack their schools with other similar mediocre personality disordered idiots. I don't mind if they spend their money on these schools but I don't want my money in a school with no transparency and tons of grade inflation.

Full disclosure I work for a public school district as a technology director. I see the value of charter schools, home schools, and other means to education for all types of children, and I wish we had more flexibility and ability to try new things (and we do when we can). but one thing that really gets under my skin especially in this video. " they have special education directors" yep special education you know those kids that have some sort of disability that makes learning really hard. also the kind of disability that means a charter or private school can say no to. this is one thing that gets left out of every conversation when people start slinging mud at public schools. we educate all children regardless of any circumstances. when a student can't get in or gets kicked out of a charter or private school for any reason guess who educates them the public school. and when a student commits a crime and is removed from public school to a detention center, guess who is there to educate and hopefully rehabilitate that child. it is another public school. I do think that public schools can do better and that many of our issues come from overreach by politicians and bureaucrats especially on issues they know little about. Hell, I am still dealing with an internet safety law written in 1998 that still has a big impact but has been left in the dust. I am also in Kentucky ware most folks in this nation have heard of the battle over the pension system bind we have worked ourselves into and as part of that system thinks the state needs to find a fiscally responsible way to address it. But all that said I think we as a nation have a responsibility to educate all children. No matter the means public schools, private schools or charter schools and having a choice between them. I guess my request in this Mr. Strosell is that if you wish to report on public education in the future please remember that at the school and classroom level my teachers and administrators fight dam hard every day for the best outcome for every child. And when other systems give up on that child or will not accept that child they are there for them. I will agree that there are problems in the system but please discount what public educators strive for every day.

I agree this needs to be a part of the discussion, but I disagree with a few finer points, due to my own experience. I live in a high immigrant community. My kids attend a charter school that caters to English As a Second Language students. They saw a need and filled it. They do this by hiring half the teachers and twice the teachers aids, because they are working on 75% of the budget of a public school, and immigrants typically can't make up the cost difference. And they have phenomenal results. Meanwhile, in the public schools in this area, a politician got elected on the campaign promise of more and better paid teachers. But that promise was kept by drastically cutting lower paid, non-unionized teachers aides. They kept their special ed directors, they just cut the people who were actually administering the special ed. And they didn't have a choice in it, because the decision came at a government level. My kids school doesn't cater especially to special ed, but it is a workable model that proves the charter system could cater to special ed and do a better job than the current system. Because special ed kids (like ESL kids) need one on one training, not bloated top down edicts.

goclone I guess that’s how it is in the mainland but here in Hawaii the students that I had at my public charter school that had learning disabilities and physical disabilities were taught how to farm, how to work along with a different tailored education for them. They learned how to make irrigation systems, learn hydroponics, along with tending to the fishery we had and even some of the cattle and gardens. Those kids got a good education because they were taught how to still be independent enough along with there disabilities. I know in public schools that there are teachers that actually care about there students and want whats best for them but stuff like the SAT’s, the forced curriculum that’s outdated or being changed to just brainwash kids into being idiots instead of free thinking critical thinkers and even out right banning of stuff like recess or more specifically making physical education way less fun by having overly safe equipment isn’t helping. I live in one of the poor districts where the public high school has fucking cops on duty to “keep the peace” cause fights break out all the time and even get organized by the students, kids who bring improvised shanks and knives cause they grew up learning how to make those. All the fucking kids from that school didn’t think they’d make anything of themselves and it showed. They smoked in class, drank, got pregnant early, teachers sleeping with students (my fucking brothers sleep with 2 of the female teachers), teachers having actually fist fights with students. It was shit! The public charter school I went to actually showed me what I could do, what I could be! I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and ended up taking up the STEM program one of the teachers had going. I got interested in construction and architecture work from that class, ended up working over the summer with the same STEM teacher to help build one of the new school buildings and even learned some electrical from him! Me and him that summer built a classroom my school mates used along with myself and I even earned a wage from doing it! I did my senior project on how we went about doing it, that it gave me confidence in myself to find a career in construction and what my plan was to get into construction. As soon as I graduated highschool I went to the trade school here and got my associates degree in construction in 2 years. I was 19 when I got my degree! And I already proved what I learned cause the construction course gave hands on approach and even gave us a good starting place if we joined the union cause a lot of alumni from the construction course are in the union and know the students that come out of it are good workers. I’m planning on giving back to my community by getting these kids with no direction SOMETHING to do. We don’t got a lot of fun places around here so I figured we should just build some. I got a lot of work ahead of me from actually building up the funds needed, making connections and trying to shape the community to WANT to change but it’s better then sitting on my ass and not doing anything. Though I’m glad someone up there in the mainland still fucking cares for any of these kids and actually wants there to be better but damn if I know how you’ll do it what with all the private companies trying to breath down public schools necks. Thing is we had to deal with some of that crap to. We had to do those stupid useless SAT’s and stuff and the thing is the students did there damndest to make sure we could pass those cause we the students knew our teachers actually fucking cared about us and we wanted to show they weren’t wasting there time. So yeah, just your students knowing you actually give more then a passing fuck about them is probably one of the best things your doing for them and maybe giving them a few nudges in alternative ways they could learn.

Unions help incentivise the best teachers to become teachers by keeping the quality of the job high. Teachers with the most experience are almost always better at teaching, and without unions many schools would fire these teachers to avoid paying higher wages and hire younger, less experienced teachers who will work for less money.

Thank you! Several of us have been studying Kentucky's public school system and trying to improve our schools. It's very frustrating work. The system is designed not to be accountable and the only answer to failure is "we need to adequately fund public education", which explains why we now spend three times as much after adjusting for inflation than we did in the 1970s with slightly worse academic performance, during a period when vast improvements in information technology have made all related fields much less expensive. The more I see of public education, the more it looks like institutionalized child abuse. Most teachers are well intentioned and they try their best. The problems are structural, and are largely in the central office.

Government was never intended to have a part in Education. Education is not a Constitutional right but like so many other things in America the government feels the need to control education and Americans feel entitled to it. Charter schools at least adds competition to a government monopoly on children's education.

There's a good argument for a common baseline educational funding target, even for kids who aren't your own. All things considered, it is better for each of us that every child has access to education of some standard. Primary and secondary education are generally pretty cheap if run correctly. Where exactly that funding goes is another question.

Teaching latin is great! It'll help them learn other languages down the road. So lucky!

Latin is used in science math *and also a necessity in Law and also Medical fields* and is the root of so many foreign languages to include our own. When I was in high school I wanted to learn Latin but we only had Spanish or German.. like I’m ever gonna work for Germany.. so instead I bought Latin books and took a vocational class in place of the foreign language. *hell I would have rather learned Sanskrit or Arabic or a Cyrillic language than the garbage they force on us.

I took latin in High School and can read and understand Italian and can read and understand enough of Spanish and french to get around in those languages.

As someone who goes to a charter high school, I can agree with completely. Test scores for the school are at least 10% higher then the high school I would have gone to. It also allows for much more flexibility with what we as the students are able to do as recreational activities (Our normal school day ends at 1:30PM, but we have Conservatory from 2:00-5:00, which includes choosable activities like writing, art, band, dancing, etc.) Back in public middle school, I have been neglecting to do any homework and although I was thought of as a bright person from my peers, I was getting not very much work done, and I felt no regrets. Now that I have moved to my Charter School, the difference is as clear as night and day. I now offer to do extra work for others, and my house/personal life has never been so cleared up because I have been that much more motivated to work towards my goal since I realised how little work I ever did before. In Conclusion: Thank you Charter schools!

Then you remember he did an expose against charter schools.

I believe the performance gap between normal public schools and the charter/private schools is the discipline and expectations they are allowed to enforce. These are the kids that would be in the top 15% of their public school because the parents hold them accountable and have higher expectations. Start allowing public schools to enforce the same standards and hold parents accountable for the behavior of kids and you’d see a big improvement in public schools.

I paid a lot of tax to local public schools but sent my children to private schools on my own dime because the quality of education are much higher.

In the UK you get to enroll to any school no matter where it is in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland and its all because schools are funded by the Department for Education which is a central government body but the schools are owned by the local council (e.g. London Borough of Croydon) or the county council (e.g. Surrey County Council) except for academies which are owned by private companies and most 6th form colleges are independently owned (e.g. South Thames Colleges Group) and all are inspected by Ofsted which gets to close down schools or colleges (or at least punish them I think) if they are too bad and don't seem to care about their students.
