Comment on Parents opt kids out of school computers, insisting on pen-and-paper instead

However, the feeder middle school had class sizes of 60+. There were literal riots, with multiple teachers injured, that the district covered up.

This was a public school and they tolerated this shit?
Sweet Jesus the standards have fallen.
Is it the parents, school board and administration or a combination of all 3?

White flight and a state that hates education.
The rest of the science department were “emergency certified” - eg, random bachelors degrees.
I know for the fact the district has put teachers in without BACKGROUND CHECKS.

Holy shit. Lemme guess… it’s a southern state and in a majority black district?

Bingo.
First week of the job: “hey, stop talking about your college experiences with the kids. These kids are never going to college, so none of it will ever connect with them.”
