The Schools Cannot Be Saved....They Must Be Destroyed

[basquebromance]

folks want teachers to be shepherds to these kids. but no one wants to talk about the fact that many of them are raised by wolves!

".... teachers of West Virginia quickly became the darlings of the socialist left. Jacobin magazine, which had extensively covered the strike, ran a victory-lap interview entitled “What the Teachers Won.” News coverage touched off copycat strikes, beginning in Arizona and spreading to other states. The “Red for Ed” movement was born, uniting unions, socialists, and other far-left radicals in dreams of an American labor renaissance."


Things changed under Republican direction in West Virginia ...

"That was then; this is now. Last week, with very little noise or fanfare, the West Virginia legislature passed the most expansive Education Savings Account program in America.

Applicants for the Hope Scholarship will receive 100 percent of their state education dollars — $4,600 annually — in lieu of public schooling. (County and federal funds will remain in the system.) The scholarship is usable for private school tuition, homeschool curriculum, or other education expenses. Gov. Jim Justice, a vocal opponent of ESAs as recently as 2019, has signaled he’s likely to sign."

West Virginia Just Passed The Nation's Broadest School Choice Law

For a state that couldn’t pass a modest measure on Education Savings Accounts just two years ago, it’s a breathtaking turnaround. What changed?

West virginia still hasn't figured out dupont tried to kill them. Although I am happy for this law but I hope they take dupont down...and it folds up it's doors. Would be a huge plus.

Look at me, I is a Teecher!

Actually I am willing to bet a home schooled child will outperform most inner city children that go to public schools!

1.The infection runs too deeply. The amount of damaging curriculum, bureaucracy, and political leaning cannot be incised, and the system remain. It must be re-built from the top down, the bottom up, and both sides as well. If any true Americans wish to have children that respect them, love their country, and continue to be recognizable as their own offspring, then they need to opt for carefully chosen private education, or home schooling.

Nor do I have the slightest faith that any such will be done. We will simply continue to bask in the afterglow of a once great nation.


2. This is mandated government schooling throughout our once-free nation:

“…the Wake County Public School System, which serves the greater Raleigh, North Carolina area, held an equity-themed teachers’ conference with sessions on “whiteness,” “microaggressions,” “racial mapping,” and “disrupting texts,” encouraging educators to form “equity teams” in schools and push the new party line: “antiracism.” …began with a “land acknowledgement,” a ritual recognition suggesting that white North Carolinians are colonizers on stolen Native American land….claimed that “(white) cultural values” include “denial,” “fear,” “blame,” “control,” “punishment,” “scarcity,” and “one-dimensional thinking.” Parents, according to the teachers, should be considered an impediment to social justice. When one teacher asked, “How do you deal with parent pushback?” the answer was clear: ignore parental concerns and push the ideology of antiracism directly to students.”

Take a look at the current result of American students compared to the rest of the world’s students today:

4. Just as Democrats/Communists yearn for a ‘worker’s paradise,’ I yearn for a ‘scholar’s paradise,’ and nothing could be further from that dream than government schooling. There are things that could and must be changed in a new school system, and using the 'woke' terminology.....a school system that must be "re-imagined."

Don't look at me. I abandoned the public school system when I had kids and homeschooled them all. I highly recommend it to anyone who has the education and commitment to handle it.

11. “…competent people find teaching to be a less desirable profession to enter. Who would want to become a teacher when they know they will have no power to maintain order in the classroom? And that they are simultaneously on the hook for anything thSat may happen, ….”
What is wrong with American high schools? | The Liberty Loft

So, who becomes a teacher today?

In addition to the political bias of government schools, there is the question about how educated those educators actually are.



“At many large universities with an undergraduate college of education, the education school is regarded by students and faculty alike as the weak link, sometimes something of an embarrassment. None of the top dozen or so universities in rankings compiled by magazines like US News or Forbes typically even has an undergraduate ed school, in contrast to lots of institutions among the lowest ranked universities that were originally "normal schools" that even now have large education colleges.

An important new study of literally thousands of teacher prep programs from the National Council on Teacher Quality (NCTQ) suggests the campus indictments of education schools are very justified.

The students majoring in education are below average academically, with relatively low test scores and high school rank. They often have so-so preparation in the subject matter they are going to teach.
Relatively weak students are given a non-rigorous course of study but earn very high grades.” https://www.thefiscaltimes.com/Articles/2013/07/08/The-Alarming-Truth-About-Education-Majors

Start paying teachers more and improve their work environment. Only then will you see improvement.

Yeah, that's totally how it works at my job. "Raise my pay, and you might see me do my job competently." That's some fantasy world you've got going there.

 

[Cecilie1200]

There is no "cleaning up" or "saving" America from the left. My advice is to move to a VERY white, predominantly Christian community in a VERY red county in a red state and make the best of it. Eventually, the left will do to the nation what it's done to black communities. I'm thankful that my two children are bilingual (Spanish) so that they can migrate to a nice part of Latin America after the U.S. becomes a gigantic shithole.

What does "white" have to do with anything? Are you trying to say that blacks, Asians, Hispanics, and Native Americans can't be Christian, conservative, and concerned parents?
