So pursuing that logic i guess one has to be a dentist to get a toothache or a plumber to know the faucet is driping......public education is broken in many ways...one of the ways is the arrogance and condescention coming form those in the know who only seem to know how to spend money and yell for more...when 50 years ago we spent less and had better educated children...but i'm sure your salient logic and reason will put to shame any such practical observations by mere mortals and layman


With all due respect, the letter /i/ when used in a sentence all by itself is the first person, personal pronoun and should therefore be capitalized.
The contraction I’m comes from the root words I
and am. That meansthe letter /i/ should be capitalized.
Also, drip is the root word for the word dripping. The suffix “ing,” begins with a vowel. When a root word ends with a consonant preceeded by a vowel, you double the final consonant to add a suffix that begins with a vowel.

The correct spelling for condescension is not condescention.

At the risk of divulging salient logic to a layman, I feel compelled to inform you that there are these things called commas. You can use them to list phrases in a series of examples or items in a list. There are also things called sentences. They end with periods. They also begin with a capital letter,

The initiating inquiry for the thread was:

Any thoughts out there on what kids should learn and the role of the government?


My response may not have been clear and I do apologize for any offence it may have caused you. The federal government’s role in any type of school system is huge. Almost all decisions made by a school system centers around the government.

I can appreciate your comment regarding educational spending-but I can assure you that educators in the classroom are not the people yelling for more money. They definitely do not decide how to spend it. Those are reserved for higher levels of the bureaucracy, not mere educators.

Yours Most Sincerely and Respectfully,
777 Nom

Madam,

I work in Higher Education in the UK and you are quite wrong. Education lies in the public domain and is not at the whim of "educators" who really have deep knowledge of their own specialism and not of the broader scale. I would never denigrate the beliefs or ideals of educators but one must understand that their expertise is narrow and thus(in the greater sense) flawed. Even as a sociologist of many years study I would balk at claiming I knew what was right for the people. Education is society's concern and therefore society has the right to make judgements (yes, and changes) upon it. They may not always be right (viz. Facisim/National Socialism) but it is "their" society.


wow...did I really type that ?

[COLOR=black][FONT=Arial]Sir,
