Private school perks for public schools

To the Editor:

With all the money beingconstantly thrown away atfailed programs (Every Day Math, Balanced Literacy, IBM Spreadsheets, etc.)by Arrogant Mike and Troll Joel, it seems to methat privatizing the public schools is their main goal. If it is,then the good, hard-working students, parents and staff of the public schools should have the same privileges as private schools — you know, getting rid of disruptive students and parents and inadequate administrators!

I’d be happy if Mike and Joel threw some money at my school so we could get the boilers fixed. Half the children are freezing and the other half are sweltering!
