From poorer or less well-to-do school districts, that's where the gap actually grows, just the regress when they show up in the fall. That's just one example. I think it is a nice perk of being a teacher that you have summer break, but we should take a look at what produces the best results. And conversely, the very best aren't rewarded.

Let's say you're actually doing the best job amongst your pack of peers of teachers in teaching kids how to excel in math and science and reading ability and critical thinking in a way that's measurable. that person still gets paid the same salary, which I think is way too low right now.

I think the best ones would actually get paid more money, especially it's in the context of a true market-based system where the people at the level of the family have the ability, whether they can afford it or not, they're able to, with a voucher or with an educational savings account, able to choose to go to a better school. Absolutely. There's good evidence for this.

I don't think it happens magically. I'm with you. It doesn't happen magically. But I think that great leaders can make a difference. I think good leaders with the right policies at the level of the state can fix this problem. Here's why. This is not going to the moon. Going to the moon is a problem of physics. And not every natural problem has a man-made solution. This is a man-made problem.

That's an issue. It's about how you use it. So take the money to administer the bureaucracy. Put that money in people's pockets and allow them to actually get to the best possible education they can get to. either renegotiate the union contracts or maybe get rid of them altogether, in a way that allows for merit-based pay. Doesn't that create just smart schools and dumb schools?
