In the original Greek system there was 1 teacher to 5 students. Now we have 1 teacher to 30-35 students and blame the teacher for the kids not getting taught. Perhaps if the class size were reduced to reasonable all students would get the individualized attention they truly need, teachers would not be swamped with paperwork and everyone would be able to pass the GED. Add in good health care and a focus on relationships and compassion and we would be a decent country with a future.
