Stop talking, stop posing, start cutting the dead wood and multiple levels between our tax dollars and needy schools.
, Mark...Hear, hear! But, the multiple levels and bureaucratic bs

are "at work" at all the levels, imo. School systems that I am familiar with,
here locally in NC, locally in Naples,FL and back in Jersey where my adult
kids live, are all in a mess, for various and slightly different reasons, but
I promise that "gov't" and the over stuffed admins that run these systems
are not helping any kid, anywhere, anytime, imo.
