I think I understand the intended outcome of this bill. However, without being intentional in funding this hard turn is a serious mistake on those who but this in place. Also, this will require a serious paradigm shift for parents to participate in learning more and not but the burden on educators. Stop saying you cannot practice academics at home because you have too many children, work the evening shift, or they are participating in travel sport clubs.
