They are really pushing through with this K-12??

The people pushing this K-12 thing are really not proposing a solution but rather a problem. It seems that they do not realize the fact that spending long time in formal schooling does not necessarily mean quality education. I smell politics and money again on this program. You see, they are not really concern about quality education. The more time students stay in school, the more payment which leads to more profit that will make the people involve fat and happy. LOL

I don't really know too much about K-12 but I do know it is free in many areas. I think giving parents and children another option when it comes to education is a great thing! There are so many reasons why this would be better for some children. Some children need a quiet place to learn and the distraction of other students would be eliminated. Other children might have bullying issues or health issues. Other children might have social issues such as phobias or shyness where this platform might be better for them. My children go to "regular" school but my 11 year old asked me to consider letting her finish school with K-12. She does not like the middle school and high school in our area because she does not feel she would be safe.

There is alot of problems with educational system but adding more years is not the answer. I don't know where you hear this but it is ludicrous. If schools don't have imaginative teachers, ones that can keep students interested, then all is lost. Adding more years is not the answer!

Indeed, that obviously is the answer. A rather flawed process to begin with, let's add two more flawed years to the equation. That really is going to really be the situation to say the very least. That's just like the company that is losing money, so the obvious situation is open even more locations, so they can lose even more money, instead of trying to fix what they have. Here's the thing, why don't you try and fix the education that you have? Work with what you have. Then we can really go through bit by bit to say the very least. Mark my works, anything like this, no matter where it is, is going to blow up in the face of anyone. The quality of education is going down at a rapid rate these days and this is just going add to an already pressing headache.

I did not know you did not already have K through 12. I think for our country it is needed but the studies need to be more efficient. I also like the idea of everyone haveing the opportunity for 4 more years of higher education.. Education is important and I do agree they need to be more efficient in their teaching. I also like the idea of teaching practical skills in high school and company sponsered jobs for credit Just to be clear..do you go K through 10th grade and then on to college??
