The results of this report, if accurate, support ‘Unliited Education’ Research, Surveys, Workshop and Test Results; which prove that no matter how much money we spend, no matter how much we focus on Teacher Pay and on how new the school buildings, books and computers are and no matter how big the incentives to school districts and individual schools are; if we don’t, first, teach our Children the …’Value’ of Education, then they will not care. What the Teacher says, is going in one ear and out of the other. Without teaching them the proper ‘Work Ethic’, first, then kids will not show up to class everyday and on time, they will not do their homework nor will they do the research. And if they are not, first, taught the proper ‘Morals’, then they will not stay out of trouble long enough to learn and they will disrupt the class. ‘Morals, Values and Ethics Education’ is the solution, not programs that spend tons of money on incentives for schools to make progress with kids who don’t care, who have no ‘Work Ethic’ and who haven’t even been taught ‘Right from Wrong’, yet.
