I agree, and good teachers are where the rubber meets the road in education. Good teachers deserve good pay, good facilities, and good administration. All of these cost money that isn't there without full, or close to full, utilization. And even if you could snap your fingers and get full utilization, there are the challenges of years of deferred maintenance due to years of chronic underfunding. There aren't easy answers and there are way more paths that lead to failure than success. The only way out is to honestly acknowledge the challenges and tradeoffs and come up with a balanced solution with the correct incentives for long term success.
