    In most Schools dominated by POC in Oregon, There is very little structured learning. Only chaos with the majority of staff being assaulted at least once throughout the school year.

    I always think of the poor kids who attends one of the public school shit-holes who really does want to learn, or maybe is on the fence but in the right environment could be encouraged to learn. Thanks to Obama's policies these schools can't even suspend and get rid of the kids who are disrupting their class rooms. Thus ensuring that nobody is learning.

    There are still public schools where I live that learning is happening for the majority of students.

    McKay HS in Salem was a real success story for a a few years. 70% POC student body and had amazing achievement increases that had them amongst the best in the Valley.

    And then the School board allowed RAZA to control things. They removed all of the SRO’s. And for many Kids, the SRO’s were huge role models. Especially for kids with one parent.

    After that most of the schools went to chaos. There are many pending lawsuits by staff against the Salem Keizer School District. Horror stories of teachers being beaten and not being allowed to leave that room. No reports to police and in many cases, not even a report to parents of the Kids that were in that room as well.

    1200 school staff were surveyed at the end of the 2022 school year and over half reported being assaulted by a student. Most more than once that year alone.

    My daughter is a junior in college- she hears the stories of her teammates who went to public schools in Baltimore and Philly area. Not many of those stories are positive. Kids going to school for free breakfast/lunch and wifi access.

    When I lived out there my friends whod grown up there couldn't believe I went to public school. Like they couldn't even fathom that in other areas of the country not just the poor kids go to public school

    The school board in the biggest district here intentionally runs out middle class families so they can get Title One money for schools. They'd deny it of course, but if you look at all the evidence, it's true. I'm sure it happens all over. Beyond the honors/AP/gifted classes, education in most public schools sucks. A lot of kids don't care because their parents don't and they don't have a dad, or a good one.

    The honors/ap/gifted classes are still basically mediocre school from 20yrs ago.

    With robots starting to take over labor jobs the uneducated will live in stacked containers with a screen and a small fridge with Soylent in it. Maybe a microwave.Think read player one and Walle’.

    The screen will feed the subjects clips of AOC and the squad telling them what they should believe and to hate Jews.

    Explains why they're doing away with the honors classes. Since too few POCs are in the honors classes they're obviously racist and must be eliminated. Amazing how Asians stopped being "people of color" about 20 years ago.
