I loved were I went to school, but the fact was when I went to college I was behind everyone else from other parts of the state. It was most noticable in Biology, Chemistry, etc.... I never had a legit working chemistry lab until I entered college. I spent most of my Sr year at Mountain Empire through dual enrollment, and was very fortunate to live near there.
Having said that, I and anyone else would be selfish and a fool to not want a better education. I just hope the decisions now and in the near future are doing whats best for the kids and not the selfish parents that sit around saying "I dont want lil Johny to be a Viking, or an Indian." Im afraid all of this embarrassment has turned into nothing but a political contest. I just hope there's still enough people out there that will put there selfish reasons aside, and do what's best for the kids.
