Vouchers could improve school quality as eligible schools can compete for students. #ecn152
My pub school was down the street from the priv school attended by Tom Brady/ Barry Bonds. Their sports facilities were much nicer. #ECN152
Private high schools, mid schools, etc, seem like a status symbol for parents. How many kids in private school had a decision. #ecn152
What it takes to become a teacher is probably also what defers many from teaching #ecn152
Union can be good for the individual with lenient leaving policies but bad for schools, having to deal with last min staffing probs #ecn152
Id imagine older teachers are better, from learning by doing. Most should know what does or doesn't work. #ecn152
If there is no incentive for permanent work I don't think one would teach at their best, at any level of training. #ecn152

Used to work VALET!! at the SIEPR events at Stanford...Met people who donated whole buildings. Def giving back to the school. #ecn152
Dont think life is fair. Some districts will always be rich, some always poor... Social mobility. #ecn152
@baweiher I went to a state school out of high school, then back to cc. If I new I'd end up at CC I wouldn't have studied.#ecn152
Another benefit of CC is being able to attend any of the campuses in the district if classes weren't available at one. #ecn152
Community college helped knock out general ed at a good price, didn't prepare me for Davis, it was too easy and slow paced. #ecn152
Parents always at work, gma watched me, forced me to finish all my work before I can go play...Great anti-procrastination discipline.#ecn152
A lot of health issues in developing countries, lots of missed days, not as beneficial #ecn152
Young students need more individual attention, with dif to learning styles. Until a sense for independence is developed when older #ecn152
