That would be a massively counter-productive measure. I know the value the local people and government place on education. Part of the reason that our educational system is defective is the lack of nationwide standards for education. My ex-step-son went from an intensive schooling system in California and came to the lackadaisacal system in the Tennessee (which I didn't realize was in such a state until my children went to school. I am firmly in favor of nationwide curriculum and books. I won't get into the problems I see in school simply because of the stress on sports instead of academics.
Sincerely Yours,
