Decisions regarding the education of our children are best made at the local level. Teachers, parents and other experts close to the community better understand the specific needs of students and are better equipped to make critical decisions pertaining to the classroom. The federal government is currently too involved in making decisions regarding our public schools, yet are too far removed from the communities directly impacted by such decisions. Tax dollars should be returned to the states where they can be distributed most effectively.
