First, I would increase the number of school days from the current average of ~180 to ~220 making school virtually year round, with 4 - two week breaks between terms. Second, I would reduce class size. No more than 15 students per teacher, K -6. No more than 20, 7th - 12th grade. I would teach more subjects on life skills, and allow more subject specialization in 9th - 12th grade (to train in specific trades).

my first school was Mill Pond Elementary. It was built in 1951. it is still standing today. it was in Westborough, MA in USA. i did not like it. i did not like it because my Assistant Principal was too cautious.

All public high schools in Mauritius teach the cambridge curriculum leading to O and A levels. After 5  years, the students take their O levels and two years later, their A levels. Admission in public schools is competitive, but most Indian working in Mauritius, tend to send their kids to the Mahatma Gandhi Institute, which is semi-governmental high school. Private schools usually offer the international Baccalaureate examinations.

If there are 12 times as many students as teachers, then there are 13 times as many students and teachers as there are teachers alone.  To find the number of teachers, you divide 1500 by 13 to get 115 teachers.  The number of students then is 1500 - 115 or 1385 students.

Usually students are hmschooled by  a parent.  Alot of hmscool cirriculums come from the christian churches. They are good compared to most public schools some of them can be very conseravative as far as life issues. Some of the church familys are great to get books and help as far as what your state educ. dept. requires. The U of Mich. used to ?? have a good cirriculum but was costly.

if it's only up to 6th, it's definitely 6th grade, but kindergarten teachers are about the hardest working, most patient teachers I know (I've worked in elementary ed for 20 years)\n8th grade is actually the worst of all!

Yes, Scott is confused. Massachusetts is indeed a state as well as a Commonwealth--it's the "official" term they use for Mass. But it is also one of the 50 states of the United States of America; it has two names. But the capital of Massachusetts is Boston.
