Why are schools worried more about their financial welfare than our educations?

Americas schools, our schools, i.e Elementary, Junior High, and High schools, have horrible education systems. The teachers do not care about teaching, and the school districts only work for the money. My schools set day to end was May 26, the day after memorial. But, all of the employees at the school had a meeting and decided that we should go to school on memorial day and it should be the last day of school. We sat in our classes with substitutes that advised us to get our cell phones and ipods out. THEY ARE NOT EVEN ALLOWED ON CAMPUS AND WE WERE INSTRUCTED TO USE THEM!!! The law clearly states that if there is school on a national holiday that the students must be taught about that holiday.


Sorry, I strayed from the subject.

In my school we are only allowed to miss 18 days during the school year because if we miss anymore than that they lose all the money they would have earned from us otherwise. They threatened to hold me back because I missed 18 and a half days of school. I make straight A's except in gym, where I happen to be making an F. By no means am I fat or lazy, I wear double zero size pants, but I would much rather think to myself than participate in sports.


Again I swayed from my subject,

******THE REAL POINT******For those of you who do not wish to read all the details of my ramblings.

Do you think that the school systems need to stop worrying about money, and learn to teach us what we are there to learn?

Why do you feel the school systems are corrupt?
