 * Issue Category and Bill Title**-Education, Equal Education for All


 * Pupose**-The purpose of our bill is for everyone to have an equal opportunity to get an education and to support the school systems in the United States. We believe that education is a very important issue in the United States because our future depends on it. If the kids today are becoming smarter, we will further develope and prosper into an even greater country. It is imperitive that we give our future generation a good education. People in all social classes will recieve the same amount of education. We will work very hard to provide an education for the students of America.


 * Eligibility**-Equal Education for all applies to every school system in the United States.


 * Terms and Benefits**-This bill would be very beneficial. Every kid in the United States would get an equal education for a reasonable price. They will get the chance to go to High School and college to start a career and be able to live on their own. In order to make this happen, we need more money. There will also be a lot of planning and hard work involved so that we can provide an equal education for all in the United States.
 * Our plan for getting money for this project is simple. The first thing we will do is gather donations from corporarations and make deals with them. If they give us a certain amount of money, we will give them a tax break. This will pay for most of the rebuilding of the school systems in the United States. If more money is needed, then we will tax every citizen in the United States the same amount so that the children can have a better education and future. This tax won't ask for too much money, because we already have the donations to start out with. The money altogether gathered will cover rebuilding schools, training treachers, supplies and materials, technology, and tutors.
 * When we have all of the money that is needed, we will start rebuilding schools across the United States. We will talk to the Governor of each state and discuss which schools need to be fixed up, and we will start rebuilding. As the rebuilding is going on, teachers and tutors will be going through training so that the children have the best chance of learning and growing. Teachers and tutors have to have certain qualifications and college degrees in order to go through the training. Once in training, they will go to workshops, classes, and lessons that help them to better educate students. Multiple centers in each state will be set up so that they are easy to reach. People who are currently teaching as well as people who want to teach will be required to attend this programs. We want to garauntee the best education we can manage.
 * After every school is rebuit and fixed, we will supply them with all of the materials necessary for a good education. This includes books, smartboards, computers, classroom furniture, kitchen supply, average school supplies, and more. We will tally up how many of each supply all of the schools need, purchase them, and then supply them to the schools where they are needed. When every school has the same technology and materials, this makes the education across the United States equal because every student has the same acess to any information they are required to learn and know.
 * Once all of the schools have their materials and supplies, and the teachers and tutors are ready to educate, we will give them a pacing guide and schedule for the whole year. The pacing guide will help every teacher in the United States teach the same curriculum and lessons at the same time, so that the students are all at the same point in their education. The pacing guide will include formatives and summatives, lessons, and quantity of homework. The school year schedule will include first tand last days of school, holiday breaks, teacher workdays, and a day-to-day schedule of classes. Every school will be on their breaks at the same time and hey will have the same number of maximum snowdays and absences. This will also be a benefit to students who transfer.
 * And if your children are home schooled, they will be following the standards for home schooling. These students will still be recieving the equal education and grow as a person.
