I just wanted to say good luck... and the answer to your question IMO is " no, no they have NO idea what they are doing!" We have had our battles in this state...its a traditional, we do it the way we do it way of functioning and borderlines rediculous at times. You will need to be a very strong person to get adequate public schooling in this state. I'm very glad we only have to endure it for another year and a half!
