**** JUST SOME THOUGHTS ON THE STATE OF THE SCHOOLS.

I SPENT 17 TO 18 YEARS AS A STUDENT, 32 YEARS AS A TEACHER & ADMINISTRATOR , & ABOUT 4 YEARS AS A HIRED COACH .

HERE ARE SOME THINGS I NOTICED ALONG THE WAY .

MEMPHIS CITY SCHOOLS ARE A FAILURE . THE REASON FOR THE FAILURE IS THE COLLAPSE OF THE FAMILY UNIT IN THEIR COMMUNITY .

THOSE CHILDREN ARE COMING TO SCHOOL TOO FAR BEHIND TO CATCH UP . THEY ARE NOT ON A LEVEL PLAYING FIELD .

THE SHELBY COUNTY SCHOOLS ARE SOME BETTER BECAUSE THEY HAVE BETTER PREPARED STUDENTS WITH MORE HOME SUPPORT .

THE SCS STUDENTS HAVE A HEAD START IN THE RACE SO THEY SHOULD DO BETTER .

CONSOLIDATION WILL HURT BOTH SYSTEMS WHILE HELPING NEITHER ONE .

ONLY MEMPHIS VOTERS SHOULD DECIDE THE SURRENDER OF THE MEMPHIS CHARTER . THIS IS A MEMPHIS THING.

ONLY SHELBY COUNTY VOTERS SHOULD HAVE ANY SAY IN THE COUNTY SCHOOLS .

IF THERE IS ONE UNIFIED SCHOOL SYSTEM THE SUPERINTENDENT WILL BE WILLIE HERENDON .

THE ONLY WAY FOR SCHOOLS TO BE SUCCESSFUL IS TO GIVE PARENTS A CHOICE , & SCHOOLS MUST COMPETE FOR STUDENTS .

THE UNITED STATES HAS THE WORST K-12 EDUCATION SYSTEM IN THE WORLD , BUT HAS THE FINEST UNIVERSITY SYSTEM IN THE WORLD . THE REASON IS THE COLLEGES MUST COMPETE FOR STUDENTS SO THEY MUST GET RESULTS .

YOU LET SCHOOLS START COMPETING FOR STUDENTS , THEN YOU WILL SEE SCHOOLS GETTING RESULTS .

GIVE PARENTS A CHOICE & WATCH THE POOR SCHOOLS FADE AWAY . PRIVATE SCHOOLS KNOW THEY HAVE TO PRODUCE OR PERISH .

WHY SHOULD YOUR EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY BE DETERMINED BY YOUR ZIP CODE ?


CHOICE & COMPETITION ARE THE ANSWERS .
