She thought I would be upset. I took it as a challenge, to see if I could keep a bunch of high-school hoodlums at bay. You can't defeat them, but, you can make it hard for them. So, with the letters now deeply routered (is that a verb?), and the knife marks in the back sanded out, and the back painted black so that the gang graffiti is covered, I think I just made it a bit harder for them to vandalize it. Of course, the teacher told me they unscrewed her desk and hid it two classes down the hall, so, they're formidable opponents. But, they are kids, after all, and so, I hope that by the end of the year, I'll have a system (titanium perhaps?) that they can't deface! :)

It largely is/was since the 1970s. I saw it, i was there. About mid

2001 decade the parental rebellion about no schools for performance started to get results. So far only tokenism such as charter schools. Real reform won't happen until the teachers unions are broken. Which requires a society of responsibility for your actions. Not something to hold your breath for.
