Public Schools & Teachers WTF

[blimpo]

The only way I can see out of this is more competition from charter and private schools. That, and reduce the power of public school teacher unions. It's ridiculous, they care more about the paychecks and benefits than they do about the kids.

True.

The only reason they go into teaching is to become rich and drive $100,000 sports cars.

Nope. Those who cannot do, teach. Those who cannot teach, teach PhysEd.

But some who can do begin to teach when they witness how pathetic many are around them.

Well, that is true in some cases. It's why I home-schooled my daughter. I teach at the university now because I love to share the things I've learned.
I do not know why many people get into teaching, but it seems that too many have unfortunately chosen a profession for which they have little talent and less aptitude.

I guess they don't pay school teachers so well in Cali. Poor dame was probably forced to take up her second job. At least she enjoys her night job...

You can earn a High School Diploma at home, participating in a program that is designed specifically for homeschoolers. Discuss action steps that are required for the collection you pass online. Introduced a note on the right side of the road with a copy to provide tips for online High School Diploma, you can use the test. High School Diploma at home is a boon to those students who have learning and physical disabilities that prevent them from attending school. With the popularity of online schools, teaching and take tests online and a exam contacts to prepare for the intensive program is a good way. The student can be taught outside the classroom by a parent or by expert instructors. Comfort, convenience, flexibility and privacy are the advantages of High School Diploma in the source program. There are many options, which look like a professional and seem to offer a genuine high school diploma, but in reality, they are scams. In correspondence course students interact with their supervisors by mail or e-mail messages. Telecourses are video-based lessons that help students learn from the comfort of their room.

I don't know much about homeschooling but it would appear that there are some variables at play which would prevent accurate comparison between testing scores of public school and home schooled students:

1. parental involvement is higher for home schooled students and is reflected in the decision to homeschool and in the ability of the parent to be present to teach content or secure other teachers having been personally vetted.
2. economics -- home schooling requires a sizable investment of time and money so the sample who homeschool might have access to better resources (it is easier to take 2 kids to the museum than 40)
3. skill level -- public schools have a wide range of students and accept all applicants (in most situations). Homeschools "accept" a very limited range of student and can address student needs with a lower student to teacher ratio.

can we compare results on standardized testing knowing that the populations, resources and methods will be so strikingly different?

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Just another reason I won't take my cues from the French. Sure, they make good fries and toast, and that kissing thing was pretty cool, but not much after that...

That will spread to other things, like hey not every dog has an owner so you better not play with your dog in the back yard...

Could be coming to a gubment near you----VOTE...

I said it before and I'll say it again; if I were ever to have kids I would home school them rather than subject them to the utter failure that is public schooling.

There's no fucking way I would pay the state to babysit everyone elses kid while I sweat it out at home with mine.

Plus, I have a job.

Yeah but the stats are striking
Statistics on Public School Vs. Homeschool

Two major studies have assessed academic achievement in homeschooling. The first study,Strengths of Their Own: Homeschoolers Across America was conducted in 1997 and followed more than 5,000 homeschoolers from over 1,600 families. The study showed homeschoolers typically academically outperformed children receiving a public education on standardized tests by approximately 30 to 35 percentile points in all subject areas.

In the second, the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA) commissioned a study drawing data for the 2007-2008 school year from multiple standardized testing services. Once again, the national average percentile scores were higher in all subject areas by at least 34 percentile points, and as high as 39 percentile points. Factors such as parental college degrees, how much parents spent on education, level of state regulation, and sex of the students made little difference in the range of scores in all areas among the homeschooled children.

Two studies by Homeschool Organizations show that Homeschooling is beneficial?



Are you kidding11??: Color me Shocked.

Only one teacher?





I'm guessing the issue is that too few teachers take this option to enhance take-home pay.

Discipline--Homeschool teachers do have control over their students, not unlike the discipline teachers had that has now been taken away.

you mean taken away by liberals!!

Unlike many public school students, homeschool students have parents that care..

you mean to say the liberal unions don't care!

As of now, I don't know of one liberal union that has given birth...

if they could?? If their jobs depended on results as in the Republican private sector they would care, instantly. It's a simple point that a government loving liberal will lack the IQ to understand.

Now let's put this all in context shall we?

Of all the schools and teachers that are suspected and caught of cheating or helpijng the students cheat, How many of those schools, teachers and admins were more that 50% Asian/Hindu/etc of the student body/staff...??

Because little do most Americans know, test answers,etc.. are literally GIVEN to Foreigners in this country under the guise of "Enrichment Programs". as a means to integrate them into our society faster. call it a free ride if you will.

It's no wonder an Asian kid can come to America at age 5 and be fluent in english and proficient in Math by age 17. It's by design. These kids are pampered and "propped up" and the Average American parent is none the wiser to what's going on right under their noses.

No, idiot, your ignorant, fevered little conspiracy theory won't work here either. One more time: YOU ARE WRONG. Damn, you're fucking stupid.
