74. "until people acknowledge validity of opinions they disagree with"
Not all opinions have the validity that comes with being true.

I taught at a poor school, I also taught at one like the wealthy suburb you say you came from....the children are the same.

The children have the same abilities and dreams, it is their circumstances that differ.

Poverty is one of the biggest problems in education...so this administration is taking money from poor districts who fail and giving it to rich districts who have schools with a managed student body. Charter schools can dismiss students for most any reason...and they do.

Just because someone has an opinion does not make it valid.
