Yeah, I agree. Public schools are shit because their only motivation is to have as many students as possible so they get $$$. Not that they spend almost any of that on actual teachers that are worth a damn. Most of it is for "Administrative costs". (Morons that have no idea what they are doing but get paid way to well to be so fucking stupid).
16k/yr per student.. It would be easy to do what they did in the old days and hire 1-2 teachers for a small group of kids in your own community. They would get paid better, you could vet their teaching and the kids would get a real education.. Not this bullshit.
It has been decades but I learned more from self-teaching/learning than public school ever did for me and I was in a "good" public school. When you could teach your science class better than your teacher... You have a shitty teacher.
Also, fuck the unions. They need to go as part of the purge. They are a major reason everything has gone to shit.
