Discipline a priority in American public schools?   ROTFLMAO.

Seriously, though, the primary school that my sister teaches is pretty strict (and their average test scores are like in the 90th percentile), but they are mostly born-again right-wing Christians and most parents authorize the school to apply corporal punishment.

Gosh, that sounds awful. High grades don't justify violence against children, IMO. If Aaron had been at that school and the teacher had felt he was misbehaving, he might have been beaten for handing out free software.
