School districts should give parents a choice of schools.

I don't think that goes far enough. People should be able to choose which school district they want to send their kids to.

Schools should not punish students for not reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.

You shouldn't force someone to recite it. Not wanting to recite it is part of a person's individual freedom. I'd say it.

High school students should be required to pass an exit exam in order to earn a diploma.

Some teachers are afraid to fail students. This is a way to make sure that students aren't just skating through their classes.

The classroom is not an appropriate venue for teachers to express their political opinions.

They're not paid to express their political opinions in the classroom. I'm there to learn about the subject at hand...not their political views.

Teachers should receive performance-based merit pay.

They would have that support from family, etc., if they did a better job.

There should not be a foreign language requirement in public schools.

There is nothing wrong with learning a foreign language in high school but it shouldn't be required.

American schools should not offer bilingual classes for native Spanish-speakers.

I bi-lingual class would be a crutch, or an excuse to not learn English.

All-day kindergarten should not be mandatory.

What would the reason be for this? I went to kindergarten for four hours a day. It was sufficient. Kindergarten teachers are teachers, not your children's parents or babysitters.
