Communities have forgotten and need to relearn how to fund their own educational institutions and how to reboot their own local economies.


School corridors, gyms, halls, and play and sports grounds are perfect venues for craft and flea markets, because they have the space and the bathroom amenities and safety access. If a school can fit 120 vendor booths at $75 each for a Sunday = $9,000 per Sunday = $35,000 per month = $432,000 per year.

Fetes, markets, and classes - as many as possible. Recreate your school and you recreate your community into the society a school is supposed to create.
I’ve worked as a vendor coordinator for festivals and flea markets, it is a bit of work to set up and may be confusing at first, but with a bit of lateral thinking, some web 2.0 tools and event skills, the problems get worked out and it’s smooth sailing from there. And it works…
Schools also must give kids fresh food, preferably vegetarian to help them calm down raging hormones and increase focus in class. Sugar overload, trans fats, lack of nutrients creates learning disabilities. No wonder kids are going nuts and can’t concentrate or remember stuff. Get the kids to growing a school garden and feeding it in the cafeteria. It will teach kids to respect food, give better nutrition, calm the kids down, make parents and teachers happier, and save a bunch of budget.

Arts venues could be used for professional plays, concerts, and dances for parents and local citizens. Make use of the space for the community so students have a healthy community to grow into.
Bring back community self responsibility and sustainability.
