There is so much wrong with public education. One of the biggest problems is the near extinction of male elementary school teachers. I had some. They did things like teach chess, show you how a printing press works, played war movies in class, had veterans give talks.

@FischerKing64 That’s true. I had male teachers in both 4th & 5th grade. I remember my 5th grade teacher always wore a coat and tie. My father, who is 85, said there were 2 recesses a day when he was in elementary school.
