Or no public schools. What's even the point? The whole k-12 curriculum needs a revamp. Can they at least compress it to k-9 and leave the rest of those years for actual preparation for adulthood?

Oh dear lord no. Have you ever met a 9th-grader? They still have so much to explore about the world and themselves! It would be a tragedy to stop formally educating the public so soon.

Ha, we're at most 5-10 years from public K-16.

How about make them better? I hated public school, but you're an imbecile.

You know name calling is against the rules here.

* Bring back honors classes for those districts that removed them

* Stop no child left behind

* Teach more hardcore math at a younger age. Calculus should be introduced in 6-8 grades.

* Require more writing and reading in general.

In general bring the lower performing students up to par with the high performers, not the other way around.
