I've heard nothing but bad things about American schools and they're said to revoltingly underfunded especially in poor and non-white communities. Seen from an outside perspective it seems like all American schools do is multiple choice tests, bullying, pledge of allegiance, school shootings, eat hot chip and lie.

Austerity and culture war has consequences, one of them is that students are not given then education they need.

The school shootings are statistically insignificant but magnified to enormous size by the media, but other than that yes.
