    So what did the teachers’ kids do? Some how travel an hour to the next town? Not do 1st grade?

      Yes, they had to go to school in the next village, 10 minutes away.

        What if it was an hour or more? Do you see how that might be unreasonable?

          A villiage one hour away from any other villiage with a school? Well, hypotetically I’d say the school has to hire another teacher.

            Where do you live? If I ever have kids I want to move there! This level of investment in education borders on fantasy from my local perspective. Our government can’t even be bothered to hire enough teachers to respect the maximum legal class size, let alone hiring a new teacher for a single student just to avoid having a parent teach their child.
