I would say this is ahead of the curve.

When “Computerized Information Technology” was in its infancy, I often said:

”Whoever has access to the most accurate and comprehensive information the fastest, will be able to make better decisions, and if you're able to make better decisions...you will win.”…or something like that.

The same holds true for education.

Sad but True: Our public schools SUCK.

An FYI: I went to school in Mississippi, the poorest state in the union at the time (and now even still, I believe).

We didn't even have a consistent foreign language class, we were lucky to have English taught to us.

I came out OK. I hold 5 or 6 patents (I've lost count), and I have a job in research and development that has me living very comfortably.

It is NOT the schools, it is the attention the parents pay.

You get out of school exactly what you put into it.
