The Top Ten
1 Get rid of homework

Jordon... are you trying to get us more hours in school? Besides all this fuss about making these changes will be complex and hard for everyone to be convinced it'll work and adjust to. Not saying change is bad, but even if they were to change the education system it would probably take so long that you are already out of school worrying about your own problems.

Yes Excatly! By Letting them do Classworks instead of Homeworks.

2 Stop common core testing

I think I remember that we had to take 4 tests in 2 weeks, that was terrible. I don't know if they were the common core tests, though.

3 Stop spending a lot on military
4 Start donating to poor schools
5 Increase the education budget
6 Give kids more recess time
7 Have schools replace bad teachers with professional ones

Teachers' unions have made this nearly impossible.

Argue with the teachers' unions about that.

8 Create programs to motivate students

How 'bout the motivation of not flunking out and spending the rest of your days as a dryer at the local car wash?

9 Create programs to stop bullies

With all those "school hating" lists, I guess it's true
