Federal law says illegal kids can't use our schools but 10 million of them do. Enforce the law and remove these monsters and at a ratio of 20 students per teacher, we will have an extra 500,000 and the problem is solved.

oct 12 2019 new report found that since the Great Recession of 2008, the country lost 60,000 jobs in education. Not only that, but 247,000 more teaching jobs should have been created to keep up with growing student enrollment as the population increases.
This has resulted in a shortfall of 307,000 teaching jobs — meaning there are over 300,000 educators currently needed right now.
The data sheds light on an ongoing national teacher shortage. Back in 2008, teaching jobs increased at the same pace as student enrollment. Since the Great Recession, or after 60,000 jobs were lost, job creation in education never kept pace with the growing student enrollment.

There’s a revolt beginning among the nation’s schoolteachers, one that could well pick up momentum and spread around the country. Or it might be more properly understood as a revolt among teachers in states governed by Republicans, although it’s almost never framed that way in the news media.
But that’s exactly what it is. What we’re seeing is an indictment of the Republican model of taxation, spending and governance. Let’s start with the latest news from Oklahoma, where teachers have had enough:
Oklahoma’s schools and educators have endured some of the steepest cuts in education in the last decade, reductions that are evident in dwindling supplies, aging textbooks and the pay stubs of teachers. Before last week, state lawmakers have not raised the minimum salary for teachers in a decade, making them among the worst paid in the nation.
Monday’s walkout is part of a wave of protests from educators furious over stagnant wages and cuts to education funding. Teachers in West Virginia won a 5 percent raise after a nine-day strike, emboldening educators across the country. Several schools in Kentucky were forced to close Friday as teachers left classrooms to head to the statehouse to protest school pension reform. Arizona teachers, who have been protesting at the state Capitol, threatened to strike, demanding a 20 percent raise and restoration of funding cuts.
The cuts in Oklahoma also had dire consequences for schools. Districts have not been able to maintain buildings, so students shiver through the winter in classrooms with faulty heating, share long-outdated textbooks and become accustomed to a rotating cast of teachers. Many school districts have moved to four-day school weeks because they cannot afford to keep the lights on for five days.
We should note that under this pressure, the Oklahoma legislature just approved a raise for teachers, which they have said is not enough. In Kentucky, teachers marched today on the state capitol after Republican lawmakers pushed through a plan that would shift them away from a pension system and toward hybrid 401(k)s to save money. In Arizona, the 20 percent increase teachers are demanding would still leave them below the national median for pay.
What’s happening in these states isn’t some kind of accident. It’s a direct and predictable result of the Republican model of governing, which dictates low taxes and social services — like schools — that are as minimally funded as possible.
So, my red-state friends: How’s that working out for you?
Oklahoma is a particularly pure example of conservative philosophy in action, since state law mandates a 75 percent supermajority in both houses of the legislature to raise taxes. That’s the result of a 1992 initiative that came in response to a 1990 tax increase passed to increase school funding. Which has led them to where they are today, with four-day school weeks, cold buildings and decades-old textbooks.
If you had school-age kids and you were thinking of moving to Oklahoma, might that give you pause? What if you were a committed, enthusiastic teacher thinking of where you wanted to live? Would one of those states be high on your list?
The richer a state is, the more money it can collect in taxes, and the more it will be able to spend on education. But it’s also about making choices. If you commit to never raising taxes for any reason, then you’re almost guaranteed to create an underfunded school system that will struggle to attract and retain good teachers. It’s funny that Republicans who are firm believers in market forces and the immutable logic of capitalism don’t seem to grasp that fact.
Or maybe they understand it perfectly well, but just don’t care. Either way, it’s a good bet that as these walkouts and strikes succeed — even if they win only modest pay increases — teachers in more of those red states are going to decide that walking out is the only way to win themselves something resembling a decent salary for the challenging and vital work they do. Which is only going to draw more attention to how Republicans’ tax and budget philosophy has direct and often harmful effects on people’s lives.

WOMEN are saying fuck this and moving on. They can make twice as much in 5 - 10 years in a whole host of jobs. Doesn't matter if they are brown children or lily white ones. Remember dumbass, you have a whole contingent of BOOMER teachers, women, who had few choices 40, 30, YEARS ago. They're retiring.

When gutenberg invented the printing press 500 years ago. the job of teaching should have ended then. You want to learn, then get a book or go on the internet.

I would say teachers are extremely overpaid and extremely incompetent.

Um. Federal law says that they cannot be denied not that they cannot be taught.
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Plyler vs. Doe (457 U.S. 202 (1982)) that undocumented children and young adults have the same right to attend public primary and secondary schools as do U.S. citizens and permanent residents. Like other children, undocumented students are obliged under state law to attend school until they reach a mandated age. As a result of the Plyler ruling, public schools may not:
1. Deny admission to a student during initial enrollment or at any other time on the basis of undocumented status.
2. Treat a student differently to determine residency.
3. Engage in any practices to "chill" the right of access to school.
4. Require students or parents to disclose or document their immigration status.
5. Make inquiries of students or parents that may expose their undocumented status.
6. Require social security numbers from all students, as this may expose undocumented status. (Adults without social security numbers who are applying for a free lunch and/or breakfast program on behalf of a student need only indicate on the application that they do not have a social security number.)
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

Increase class size and enforce discipline. When I was in school 30 kids was the norm.
I’m in California ... every kid in PUBLIC school is a anchor baby or illegal alien ....
The rest of the kids are on home schooling ....

That's quite a change from the OP:
To your second post...
First, you say we'd have enough teachers to educate all the American kids if we kicked out the illegals. Then in the next post you say we haven't needed teachers at all for the last 500 years. Make up your mind. THINK!

Not surprisingly, like everything else you post, your 10 million statistic is bullshit.
These statistics are designed to help you understand the financial and educational position of undocumented
immigrants in this country
• In the United States there are 3.2 million undocumented children and young adults under the age of 24
(www.migrationpolicy.org, 2012).
• An estimated 1.49 million youths and young adults (or 13 percent of the 11.4 million undocumented immigrants) are
eligible to apply for the expanded DACA program (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals)
(www.migrationpolicy.org, 2012).
• In 2010 undocumented immigrants paid an estimated $13 billion into the social security system, but only received $1
billion in benefits contributing to $12 billion in cash flow (www.ssa.gov, 2013)
• Undocumented immigrants pay approximately 11.6 billion in federal and state taxes annually, paying a higher portion
of their income into the system than the top 1% (www.cbsnews.com, 2016).
• Among undocumented youths ages 18-24, 40% have less than a high school education compared to 8% for U.S.-born
counterparts (US Dept. of Education, 2015).
• Approximately 65,000 undocumented students graduate from U.S. high schools every year, 25,000 of those students
graduate from California high schools (US Dept. of Education, 2015).
• About 5 to 10% of undocumented students pursue higher education, and far fewer successfully graduate with a degree
(US Dept. of Education, 2015).
• Case studies of California, Texas and Massachusetts revealed that, even with access to in-state tuition, undocumented
students represent only a miniscule proportion of the total enrollment at public institutions (College Board, 2009).
• Given the opportunity to receive additional education and move into better-paying jobs, undocumented students
would pay more in taxes and have more money to spend and invest in the U.S. economy (College Board, 2009).
• By 2020, 65% of jobs will require postsecondary education and training beyond high school (Georgetown Public
Policy Institute: cew.georgetown.edu, 2014).
• By 2020, the United States will fall short by 5 million workers with postsecondary education—at the current
production rate (Georgetown Public Policy Institute: cew.georgetown.edu, 2014)
