The battlefield of public education

These are the headlines as published on the Drudge Report yesterday (May 19).
Anyone care to comment?

Sexting scandal rocks middle school (this involved distribution of a photo of a 13 yo girl nude)

Student commits suicide day after principal hypnotized him

Teacher discovers 18 lbs of heroin in 7 year-old's backpack


Mom: 12-year-old son duct taped to chair and beaten while teacher ignored attack

School wants to allow bus drivers to search students

CHEATERS: DC teachers help students beat standardized tests


Child pornography, cheating, physical abuse, drugs, body searches, hypnotism . . . 

Something tells me the American public has been hypnotized with the result that too many of us still believe the government schools are really the best place for our children to receive an education.

I'm just saying . . .
