Prayer should be permitted in public schools. If somebody wants to pray let them, if you don't want to pray, then don't pray.

Universal preschool should not be free in America.

Schools should not punish students for not reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. What is this the USSR?

Public schools should not be required to offer home economics. Don't we have bigger issues to worry about?

I rate America's education system "Satisfactory."

It is acceptable for courses on the Bible to be taught in public schools.

States should not be forced to fund the federally mandated No Child Left Behind Act. NCLB should be eliminated.

Race should not be a factor in the university admission process. Affirmative action of any sort is not needed anymore.

The No Child Left Behind Act has not been effective. No, and the Federal Government needs to get out of education.

Abstinence-only sex education should not be taught in schools. We need to be realistic here and teach about contraception.

The public school systems in America would not be improved if they were federalized. NO!!!! keep the Federal Government out of places where they dont belong.

American schools should not offer bilingual classes for native Spanish-speakers. My father came from Italy and had to learn English without the benefit of bilingual classes as has every other immigrant who has come to this country, why should people whose native language is Spanish be any different?

Schools should use plastic handcuffs to restrain students. Only if handcuffs would be used in a similar situation outside of the school, i.e., a criminal act.

The classroom is not an appropriate venue for teachers to express their political opinions. no, teachers should teach the subjects that they are paid to teach. Our taxpayer money should not be used to teach children only one side of an issue.

The No Child Left Behind Act should not be reauthorized. keep the federal government out of Education.

The federal government should not guarantee sufficient financial aid for every college student. yeah just what we need more Government spending which only leads to more corruption and fraud.

Higher education is a privilege. Another "invented" right by the left. I cannot find the section of the Constitution that guarantees a right to higher education, in fact, I cant find the section that guarantees a right to any education.

There is political bias in academia. Academia has a big-time bias to the left
