1. The standard should be equal opportunity and funding
across the country. Incentives for teachers to teach in inner city schools would also be good. As far as the curriculum, I don't think we should focus so much on standardized tests. There should be more autonomy for the teachers.

2. A bit more information would be helpful.

In reference to what exactly?
In plant development, curriculum, ethics,
I think curriculum needs to be addressed, PE, teaching about diet, and civics/government(as in how it is SUPPOSED to work).
