The longer I’m in the workforce, the more apparent it becomes that 18 years of schooling did much less than it could have to prepare me for the real world.

Talk about a sub-optimal ROI.

So I’m strongly considering home schooling my children.

Have you explored this route? Thoughts?

I am a licensed educator in Minnesota. Education is harder than it seems. My sister homeschooled her children. There are resources for ensuring the standards are covered. Also cooperatives for shared lesson plans and field trips.

One thing that could solve many problems in education is to pay teachers what they are worth. Follow the money a society spends to see what their priorities are. The US spends comparatively little vs other similar countries.

Thank you for what you do! 

It’s definitely not an issue with individual teachers. 

The problem is how the system has been set up, for what purpose it was designed and what has been prioritized as the “most important” thing for our children to learn.
