It's quite fashionable to say that the educational system is broken. It's not broken. It's wonderfully constructed. It's just that we don't need it anymore.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Our public education system does a great job. I don't think it's broken. We aren't interested in doing reform for reform's sake. I believe in public education; it did a great job for me. It deserves our support and encouragement.
Kids are falling through the cracks and nobody notices it. That to me is what's wrong with the school system.
Our educational system is appallingly poor right now. Yet, somehow we're turning out some of the most intellectual and powerful sophisticated minds in the world. I think that's because we still have the opportunity here.
The failures that we have are sometimes expensive educations.
School reform is not enough. The notion of schooling itself must be challenged.
I'd repair our education system or replace it with something that works.
The innovation and creativity that's so manifest in the rest of society needs to be turned on our school systems.
We need to have an educational system that's able to embrace all sorts of minds, and where a student doesn't have to fit into a certain mold of learning.
As somebody who visits countless schools, I see firsthand the dire situation our educational system faces.
I feel that education needs an overhaul - courses are obsolete and grades are on the way out.
