I'm 52, so it's been a long time since I was in school, but back then the school furnished all our textbooks and supplies and now I hear teachers are having to buy supplies with their own money and students are given a list of stuff they have to buy for school,
and textbook chapters are being copied and handed out because the school cant afford to give students textbooks.
What happened? And what do poor kids do that cant afford to buy all that stuff?

Here in Wisconsin, the GED test is only available to "at risk" teenagers (as in pregnant girls who're below average intelligence.) But teenagers who could pass this test and bypass "normal" education and who are capable of holding jobs and attending college or tech school are not allowed to take the test, even if they are above average intelligence or would obviously benefit from not being forced to continue with highschool. In most states, this is the exact same situation. Any ideas as to why we can't let the smart kids out of school, but we can let out all the little whores who won't get a job anyway?

He has made Asia's longest palindrome. he tried for limca book of records. they replied that they won't accept it they said that the word 'malayalam' is only the longest palindrome. How silly it is really !. Later he prepared a cross word puzzle. It is India's biggest. He sent it to the limca authorities. they didn't reply further he received no acknowledgement for his registered post. three years he made correspondence but vain. I am vexed.

Many online dictionary websites showed this definition:
To choose; to wish for; to desire.
But I would like to know specific meaning of the word 'optate'; in above definition, I have three choices for its meaning, not a one specific meaning.

I would really appreciate if you would tell me the specific meaning of the word 'optate'.

English teacher please help me!
Thank you so much!

1) Schools/administrators/teachers
2) Students
3) Parents

Before all you shades-of-gray people begin ranting, I agree--it's a bit of all three and we shouldn't over-generalize. What I really want to ask is which group(s) seems to get too much blame and which too little? Please expound on your ideas.

Again, I don't mean to be over-generalizing here, and I would agree with anyone who would say that, of course, some schools do things better than others, some students work better than others, and some parents are more diligent than others.

Lastly--please don't blame the government, unless you mean to blame every U.S. or state administration of the past umpteen years. U.S. schools have been troubled long before W became president.
