@sage_stage@SecCardona You disturbed the learning you were dealt with. No one was going to consistently keep the class from learning. In that environment, yes if you took advantage of the opportunity, public schools could open up the world for you. Today you can want it and have no chance to get it

Additionally if the he is brought to the teacher’s desk the teacher is free to refuse it.
