Maybe. Public education is a good way to mix student though, otherwise you have segregation. Ghetto schools are bad, because the bad students get worse, and the good students don't learn any street smarts.
Cutting school time, then supplementing it with tutoring vouchers would be my preference. You get a bit of both worlds. It would be tricky for teachers, who would need 2 jobs (one of which they would actually be accountable in) but that could be partly positive. Exposing teachers to a bit of business might be good.
- natrius 17y agoSegregation is alive and well. Public schools don't solve that at all. Human beings naturally stratify by class. Regardless, improving education is a greater good than increasing diversity. If there is actually a trade-off between the two, it's an easy choice.
