"US Teachers Have Had It"

[archives]

We all have different things we're interested in/passionate about and we spend more time paying attention to them. Education is one for me and I'm in no way proclaiming myself an expert, or even all that knowledgeable, but I read a lot about it and yes, there are many examples across the country of lowering of standards in the name of equity. Like many/most subjects there is nuance so there are people who will make passionate arguments for why that's a good thing and it's not to say they make no compelling points. But on the whole it's the lowering of standards in a time when we are competing in a global world and it is doing us no favors.

I understand there are charter schools that don't make it. Notice in each post I said they are not a panacea. I say that for a reason because its true. But that doesn't change the benefit of them and on the whole they provide options/opportunities. We can't flick our fingers and overnight our education system will be different. But charter schools play a role in improving our system.

Sounds nice, but you again, and many others here still do not address a key ingredient that makes the few charter schools successful, charter schools can pick and flush students, if public schools could do the same they’d be top rated also, any school would.

They can? My understanding is they cannot deny students and its often a lottery used to determine admissions (because of over demand).

False. Whole point of a charter is they can decide who gets accepted.

/grins....a space waster with a Juris Doctorate, a Masters in Theology and a 43 year career as a lawyer.......but that was an earlier age....before "safe spaces''........

Too bad nobody believes you because you're such a known FUCKING LIAR.

Just out of curiosity.... did they teach you how to be a FUCKING LIAR in Theology school?

Or did they just teach you that it's OK to be a FUCKING LIAR?

Did they tell you where to find places in the bible that say you can be a FUCKING LIAR and still call yourself a Christian?

I'm curious about that because every so-called "Christian" I've ever encountered has been to one degree or another, a FUCKING LIAR.

And BTW, at any level, Bachelor's, Master's, Doctorate.... a degree in Theology is just a fancy term for toilet paper.

But really, you're too fucking dumb to have anything higher than a GED.

It's so obvious I can tell just by reading the ignorant shit you post here.

once again my anger has rendered me incoherent

not an unexpected phenomena.....

The people have largely wised up to what teachers and the schools have been up to behind our backs. This will carry consequences.

The alt right hatred of teachers will not end well for the alt right. The people love their teachers.

"Under Siege: Facing School Shootings and Book Bans, US Teachers Have Had It"

"American teachers are the most stressed they’ve been in years as they deal with the fear of increased shootings at schools, along with burdens of curriculum restrictions and being overworked."

"Rather than support teachers, politicians are stoking up culture wars and banning curriculum and books and calling them names"

"Lawmakers in 42 states have introduced bills banning discussions of racism and other prejudices from schools, according to an Education Week analysis. Concerns over school shootings also featured with nearly half of K-12 teachers expressing worry over the possibility of such an incident."

"More than a third of teachers said they would likely leave their profession within two years. Nearly three quarters said they would not recommend the role to someone else, and those who had been teaching for 16 or more years were the least likely to recommend teaching as a career."

And this is on top of usually poor pay, jeopardized pension benefits, attacks upon what little security they have, and having to defend yourself against candidates who want to make a headline coitizing them for political ends. No wonder a third plan on quitting and over seventy five percent would not recommend it as a profession to others

Just a further dumbing down of America

There are 3.2 million Public School Teachers in America.

Perhaps it's time for Election Day to become a national holiday, so school teachers and the administrative staff can go down and vote with the rest of us instead of having to work on Election day!

Agree with that. Election day should be a national holiday. I mean, July 4 is a holiday and all people do is have picnics.

AZ public school teachers are no longer required to have a college degree of any kind before being hired.

Salaries have been so badly cut, schools can no longer afford to hire educated teachers. They are going to hire teachers without college degrees, but worse yet, they have been hiring teachers aids without even high school diplomas.

Meanwhile, Finland does among the best in the world, and requires a masters degree to teach school. That is more than just a bachelors degree.

My hyper education is obvious, LIAR.

It really is not.

The teacher shortage has many caused Covid being a big one. But also they tire of being attacked all the time.

Hawkeye could not write his name properly on an IQ test.

7 states do ban the sale of alcohol on election days- which forces bars to close- BUT NOT RETAIL STORES.

All businesses and retail stores should be closed on election days- and only frontline essential workers should be allowed to have to work on election days- police departments, fire departments, utility support crews, election workers, and etc! And they should also be allowed to take off long enough to go and vote.

But you know the Republicans are anti-democratic, and all about voter suppression, and have sissy fits about having an election day holiday.

But hey! I say FUCK EM'!

 

[Walt]

Being right a high percentage of the time is the ultimate proof of education.

Problem solving is basically intelligence, but not education. If you were educated, you would know the difference between intelligence and education.

The teacher shortage goes back before Covid. Covid has given people the ability to take a step back and realize they can get a better job. It did not make teacher in America a crappy thankless job, just allowed teachers to fully take it in.

The DOE needs to be shut down, the leadership of the teachers union round up and put in unmarked mass graves, and public schools eradicated they are nothing but neo-Marxian indoctrination centers that sexually groom children and teach them to hate white people.

 

[Shoresy]

I think of dumb people like you. Attacking education. Shame on you.

They aren't educating they are sexually grooming and indoctrinating you retarded faggot.

Lol they are overpaid with full benefits and three months vacation plus sick days and they should all be fired and the public education system scrapped and rebuilt from the ground up.

If teachers were overpaid, there would not be a teacher shortage.
