The public education system in America has been on a steady decline ever since the early 2000s in my opinion.

I remember when I was in school it wasn’t half as bad. We had teachers that for the most part cared and taught us to the best of their abilities. There weren’t half as many MANDATORY standardized tests as there are today. We had respect for our teachers and if we didn’t, well we were not tolerated and were disciplined as needed. (more…)
