Schooling the Board of Education? Vandy Survey Results

The Tennessean is reporting on some of the early results from Vanderbilt's Peabody Center for Education Policy's poll of Tennesseans. Full results will be given to the State Board of Ed later this month.

Mayoral candidates, listen up! These are 601 poll respondents who voted in November.

Some of the findings? Not that surprising. They represent a mis-mash of popular prejudices about public education in America.

-Tennesse's education system rates poorly.
-Teachers ought to be paid more.
-BUT, we're not eager to spend more money on the educational system.
-Parents are primarily to blame for the state of education. (This is my favorite one)

I hope the full report offers some sane policy recommendations.
