if you think they don’t work that hard, you don’t know any K-8 teachers.

Won't someone think about the children? Like how come these "gods" of the classroom are passing though Johnny who can't read?
Spend more money get less results.
Schools need to support the classroom, kick out the miscreants and slash the fat in administration
But there is probably nothing that can be done

A vote for republicans is a vote to genocide teachers and students I’m told.
They just need more money and then they can overtake Bahrain for 39th in the world in math competency .

One really simple, low-cost fix would be to actually impose consequences for chronic absenteeism. Can't teach kids who aren't in school.
The current generation of parents may be the worst ever on this issue.

Passing the buck after a challenge to a fair point.
Whoever didn’t see that coming should blame a teacher..

I taught my kids during Covid for almost two years. I’m not qualified. Teachers are the shit, and as someone said, junior high teachers are probably up for sainthood. It’s the layers and layers of positions between teachers and principles and principles and superintendents that needs to be looked into. Drop those non-teaching “educators” back into classrooms and you’re fixing the teacher shortage. You really want to trim fat? Cut deep into the state colleges. My goodness, that’s a mess.

When the FBI investigates parents who want to get involved it is a bit of a chilling effect
Schools are actively hostile to parents
And parents are shitty. Both can be true

My neighbors are retired, fixed retirement income, never made more the 60k in their entire career salt of the earth folks. They had a niece, a teacher, and sister in law who works in admin at UW, reach out for assistance for school supplies. I looked up their salaries, explained that both the sister in law and niece both make over 100k a year, and they quickly decided to decline providing assistance.

Begs the question. Why are teachers either digging into their own pockets or bothering the neighbors for help with school supplies?
