Education Reform class discussion reflection

In class we discussed many issues concerning the education reform and came across may good points. There are so many different parts to the education reform that many problems didn't seem to piece itself together very well to come to a complete agreement on a solution. I think many good points were made such as how a lot of money is being cut from schools and education is always the first thing people cut money from. Also, I agreed that it doesn't matter how much money schools are getting and every school should have higher expectations. Charter schools are getting better grades then regular schools regardless of how much money they have and I think that to stop spending so much on schools extra curricular activities is a big step in improving the education system.
