The adults in the office may have the occasional focus problem, but the 28 kids for every adult wouldn't stand a chance.

Been there, done that. If you're going to miss time with your kids, miss unproductive time.

Until you can get the parents--not 80% of them, but at least 95% of them--on board with making school be where you study and learn rather than be "socialized" and get grades to check off on a form education's screwed.

Looking at all the surface similarities or dissimilarities with Finland or the corporate world makes no difference. If you're making blueberry muffins and get mostly mold instead of blueberries, you lose, even if you get the best blueberries that they can send you.
