His expertise is based on years of putting shingles on roofs.
Nothing wrong with being a roofer, but it hardly makes one authoritative on how EVERYTHING is supposed work.

28. Education Programs - Federal Bureau of Prisons:
Tue Jan 19, 2021, 08:26 AM
Jan 2021

All institutions offer literacy classes, English as a Second Language, parenting classes, wellness education, adult continuing education, library services, and instruction in leisure-time activities.

In most cases, inmates who do not have a high school diploma or a General Educational Development (GED) certificate must participate in the literacy program for a minimum of 240 hours or until they obtain the GED. Non-English-speaking inmates must take English as a Second Language.

Vocational and occupational training programs are based on the needs of the inmates, general labor market conditions, and institution labor force needs. An important component is on-the-job training, which inmates receive through institution job assignments and work in Federal Prison Industries. The Bureau also facilitates post-secondary education in vocational and occupationally oriented areas. Some traditional college courses are available, but inmates are responsible for funding this coursework.

Parenting classes help inmates develop appropriate skills during incarceration. Recreation and wellness activities encourage healthy life styles and habits. Institution libraries carry a variety of fiction and nonfiction books, magazines, newspapers, and reference materials. Inmates also have access to legal materials to conduct legal research and prepare legal documents.

No "re-education," just get the addicts away from their smack long enough to sober up.

But even that's not in the works, so you'll be able to continue to get paid a shitload of money to lie to people.

Not a fancy Montessori Kindergarten, just any old Head Start operation. With, of course, enough of a teacher to student ratio.

Add a plain old-fashioned arts and crafts driven Mr. Rogers/Capt. Kangaroo type Saturday/Sunday School also, for those who are religiously driven.

Act like four year olds, get treated like four year olds.
