Peter Ueberroth on Education

2004 former Republican Challenger CA Governor

Reduce education bureaucracy and put funds into classrooms

Q: Your comments on high school exit exams.

UEBERROTH: We have spent a lot more money on education, a whole lot more. And it will run out. And the teachers, what I would propose, you take the money that is in waste and bureaucracy of other teachers and put it in the classroom. Then when it comes to the time to test, I want to see everyone graduate with proficiency in English to get a decent job, pay taxes and the state starts to recover.
