Summary- keeping kids out of school has resulted in more militant parents. Kids going to private school and homeschooled. Causing major drop in polls. Union is losing its power. Now they want to go back and are pressuring to open for schools. I'd say this, since no one is using the school buildings, shouldn't my taxes be reduced accordingly at the local level?
"Public schools may be at their weakest, politically, in decades, and the teachers unions are to blame."
