Talk:Public schools in the United States (view source)
Revision as of 01:51, June 19, 2012
, 01:51, June 19, 2012Comment about picture at top of page.
We need to write about education in the English-speaking West, for that is the topic of which "Public schools" or [[Public schools in the United States]] is only a part. Also, we should write a bit more about the strengths, for schools in North America have had many good aspects or elements. Let's take the good with the bad, and write a balanced article (or series of articles). --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 17:40, 16 August 2011 (EDT)

==Picture of school with security cameras==
I have a bit of an issue with the picture at the top of the article. It is of Charlotte High School in Punta Gorda, FL. I happened to graduate from this high school two years ago. The original school was destroyed by Hurricane Charley and the new school was rebuilt with all of the cameras. There were hardly any problems with violence or vandalism (unless you consider leaving lunch trays on the table vandalism). In fact, the school's academic team consistently defeated the area's best private schools' teams. Not only is the school a bad example of the bad things about public schools, it is a terrific example of some of the best accomplishments of public schools.--[[User:BubbaRomney|BubbaRomney]] 21:50, 18 June 2012 (EDT)
