Now is the time for churches nationwide to STEP UP and start opening their churches that are mostly closed all week, and start providing the space for schools. Many have Sunday School classrooms. All have a large meeting space. Most have audio- visual capabilities. Teachers who want to escape the confines of public school curriculums could teach an accredited home school or charter school curriculum. State per pupil funds could be diverted to these alternative schools by state governors/ legislators. Parents could contribute by donating money and or volunteer time. Retired teachers could volunteer their time. It is time to think outside the box of public government run schools. The same things can be applied for college courses. Churches could be untilized to teach students basic college academics with significantly lower tuitions. These "church-colleges" could combine a job related curriculum which would provde life experience & student income.
