Spending more money means you can pay for more teachers, which means there is a better student to teacher ratio, which really helps. And to answer the question, yes, but common core was not the way to go about it.

However, your students are still dicking around in class and don't show any enthusiasm to learn anything today.Merizoc wrote:Spending more money means you can pay for more teachers, which means there is a better student to teacher ratio, which really helps.

Again.
You can spend all the money you want on education, but it won't matter unless you have students who are willing to want to learn and understand more.

Here's more proof: The USA ranks 25th in the world for math, and 30th for reading in the world. These seem awful high, but, it doesn't make sense that FINLAND ranks higher than us in math, and MALAYSIA ranks higher inreading. The USA is lagging behind. Apparently, we failed our last generation, now, we continue to fail our students.
So, should the USA raise the budget for education?
For me, yes. The students should be educated more. We don't want students who think we lived with dinosaurs, or to think that it takes 24 hours for the earth to go around the sun.

In capitalism, you pretty much have a 50/50 chance of being rich or poor. In communism, it's 1/99. What makes people think they have the luck/skill to become the 1% if they can't even succeed in a 50/50 society???

Good luck getting them to raise education budgets after some people convinced them that we could have a world-class education system for free.

really?
Well this is news to me. I mean the USA is a very advanced country. I've always though the US had one of the best education systems in the world; I mean all of the world's most prestigious universities (besides Oxford and Cambridge) seemed to be there... Harvard, Yale, MIT etc.
They have an education problem?
I guess you learn something new every day.
Yeah i guess they could raise the budget if there is a problem.
