You realize there wasn't a Dept of Education until the 1970s.
On the flip side the whole "local control" is best is also BS. In my shitty ass county everything thing is run by ingorant inbred hillbillies that probably didn't pass high school themselves.
For example my son had to start school on August 1st this year. WTF is that about? It was also a wednesday. Why not start school on a Monday? We have a tax free holiday for school supplies and clothers in my state unfortunately it didn't start until August 3rd two days AFTER school started. No worries the teachers didn't require the kids to have any supplies until the next monday. So basically for the first 3 days of school kids did NOTHING. So why fucking start school so early?
Also instead of having four 9 week quarters like 99% of all schools systems have, we have 6 six week grading periods.
By the way the first 3 weeks of August it was 100 degrees everyday so way to go on wasting my tax $$ on high electric bill to cool the schools down.
This is the kind of retarded shit you get when you have "local control"
