Obama didn't say schools don't need more resources, he said they don't JUST need more resources. So they need more resources, but they ALSO need more reform, is what he is saying.
How about we ask everyone how to run school and dictate kids lives, EXCEPT the kids, who are forced to go year after year! Oh wait we already do that. xP
I think he is on the right track for wanting lobger school days, but children need a break as well, He means well, I think more one on one time and special classes for those kids who aren't up to par with the other kids...There are alot of kids with ADD now a days because of the vaccines back then, So more one on one time would be better,
@Claudiafox12 I guess you wouldent mind having to go back to school to do those hours he wants to add. You say but if he said everyone who graduated would have to go back to school to make up those hours. If we dont want to learn about something we will never need in our future were not going to care for it. Look at the math they teach 2x+4f(8-9+n)=4x+3t when would i ever use something like that? Or proving a rhombus is a rhombus and not a square.
@ilovemesomechicken I am thinking, maybe children will need all the extra math, and he is right about us heading into a 21st century and alot of children are not ready for what is ahead, but at the same time, adding more hours to the school day and subtracting thier vacation time, is not fair to the kids, they are just kids, not hard working adults, it kinda feels like the Government wants to allow the Elite, like teachers care for our kids, more-on-one time with the children.
@Claudiafox12 I reread my comment i messed up in the begnning. What i was saying in the begnning was if you had to go back to make up those hours he wants us to have you would probably say never mind this idea sucks
i suggest people fight the income tax and property tax (and requirements of licenses and permits to drive, carry guns, marriage and open businesses, etc.)...think about it, as if i need to tell you to.. you cant work for a living or own property without the government threatening you with imprisonment and violence, if you dont hand over a portion of the products of your labors...what do you call that besides slavery? i just cant believe how stupid people are
allready we make an investment we made a giant debt but we know we wont have to pay for it! That is why we are going to spend more on children! shutup Obama my school is fine! I will pay for my education but I'm not paying no Chinese!
We need less school time in public schools in the United States. We also need the time we do spend in school to be less unnecessary nonsense such as 50 similar math problems for homework. Public schools should give more choices and not require a person to dedicate their lives to school to do well. If you want oppressive schools, go to a private school or Japan. You can not force people to build space ships, ony the people that want to will do so.
What we are gonna need to let people choose which school they want to go to in a several mile radius. So that way the teachers are gonna have to compete with other schools or else they will have a cut salary, or possibly a layoff.
If they quit trying to teach to the stupid then maybe public school would be worth something. And the solution isn't adding more school. It's just making the curriculum challenging and useful and actually making you think in what time you do have there.
Do schools kill creativity? If creativity was a person schools would be it's concentration camp! I think that young people are going through a creativity holocaust perpetrated by teachers especially ones who hate their jobs. Everyone who agrees this is a disgusting inconvenient truth give me a thumbs up. BTW I'm only twenty years old and I understand this.
College is the most addictive harmful drug on earth... but the government encourages it. Also US schools don't need to be reformed they need to be transformed.
So, what, is he planning to extend school hours and shorten breaks? That wont help. School causes kids to kill eachother and commit suicide. Kids dont get alot of free time because the only thing that matters for the rest of the country is school. If we take away what these kids have, you will see a rise in teen violence.
The US constitution tells the Executive Branch to stay out of schools
Yet the Legislative branch sat back and allowed their powers to be usurped!
Daschle, Killefer, & Geithner skippin' out on payin' taxes; Berney Madoff fraud; Barney Frank was arrested for running a male prostitution ring from his own house when he was supposed to have oversight of Freddie Mack; Sen Dodd for mortgage fraud; etc
It dosen`t matter how much money you spend on schools, if the people who are supposed to attend never bother to show up for class, then the fancy, high tech school building is worthless. The problem is that parents are FAILING to teach their children right from wrong and to get in school and DO THE WORK. Obama is spewing typical Liberal nonsense, not holding the irresponsible parents accountable for their children. The parents need REFORM. If you are a parent, YOU are responsible for your kid.
darklipstikgrrl: You are dead on on this one. Throwing money at schools will not ensure the kids actually go! When will we get to the root of this problem?
I completely agree. The parents need to be held responsible. Too many people are popping out kids but not wanting to raise them properly. If more parents just taught their kids then so many of today's problems would be minimized.
type in dismantle public education in youtube and wonder why Barrack Obama never addresses ANYTHING seen in that video if we want change we should start by getting rid of the parasidic education system.
U.S. Schools need more money. Gangs need to be added to the terrorist watch list. Gangs are the true terrorist of America. If gangs wore on the terrorist watch list maybe kids who join gangs might think twice about it.
federal government get out of education

Rockefeller & Dewey created the US education system by using the philosophy of Hegel & Wundt
The same two men to whom Marx & Trotsky used to create Communism
In their own words, "to create a passive society of people who merely act as cogs in the wheel of society"
Thus, Americans are NOT critical thinkers - They just "go along"
That is why that nation is completely & utterly Bankrupt
Removing critical thinking from ed was simple & genius!
Not an education: But a social conditioning!
