Well, we know you can be put down as one who attended public schools.

Half your choices dont even answer your own question.

you're just a mindless, partisan troll, constantly using the word 'we' but alone in your assertions. i would think apache junction could use improvement in the educational sector, what with all the meth labs and trailer parks.

i seriously doubt you pay much property tax

I was educated in public schools thru highschool and thought I received an excellent education. I don't think the majority of our kids are getting the education they deserve now. Whenever you see schools going in shifts because there's more students than seats. There are teacher shortages not enough books students getting on the school bus at 5:45 am and school begins at 8:15 that's just not right and to make matters worse the state of NC is planning on giving vouchers to people that want to attend private schools at the tax payers expense which will only make the public school system that much worse and in more need of money........ I could go on and on but the I'll close with this. My wife and I volunteer at our local schools whenever possible to try and do our part to make this situation a little better from raising money to purchase materials for the teachers to reading to the kids

in other ways too, you can't write a candidate in on ballots there, and there is a loophole that allows employers to pay a $5.15 wage to "students", i put that in quotations because the way it works out is that employers just say you're a student if you're young.

So he says he thinks there may be a better system to educate (paraphrasing) and you say umm the poll has home schooling...

Your poll asks us if we attended public school, not whether we think it's awesome. The homeschool choice would imply we were homeschooled, not whether we favored it or not.

I'm going on record to say public schools failed you in the critical thought aspect. You have the measles that semester?

Why doesn't it have Private Schooling as one of the choices? What about Charter schooling, what about Magnet Schools and Parochial schools?

unfortunately, he is out of touch and doesn't know what is the norm now..he's still thinking 1978 "Dust in the Wind" senior year prom with no millenials in his life or he'd know.

what about Public School Online K-12?..not home school.
