Almost like it's designed to fail and they make private schools to keep their children away from yours
But yes there needs to be a complete overhaul
Public schools deserve a great plan and leaders who care about children who don't come from money
This dude is sassy I had to turn that off
yh there was no need to be that zesty to get his point across
The school system are not parents or guardians.
This all comes down to a cultural problem around family and how education is viewed.
I mean there’s liability to be had on both sides and zero tolerance policies are exclusively a school system decision as well as bullies going unchecked
White people need to riot
Our whites soft as hell, look at what them cacs doing in France
I know multiple ex-teachers who jumped ship to work with folks in other environments
My sister is finishing her teach cert. Idk how long she's gonna last she's already had to drop one school from them f***ing her over
I looked into being a teacher or filling other roles and after 1 days of shadowing/asking questions I decided f*** that
Also the older teachers have always been better to me. They always stay after school a good amount to help struggling students. These millenial teachers don't be doing that
public schools as a whole are probably fried for sure.
that being said, i had nothing but positive school memories and in my experience the teaching was very quality.

Solutions (that no one will implement because lobbyism also results wont be immediate, the problems are multi-generational):
-increase the wages of these teachers. You already got niggas having to be parents, armed vigilantes, counselors, etc. might as well give em an increase in they pay.
-mandatory therapists in schools starting from elementary tbh.
-get the f*** rid of standardized testing. The USA d***riding this s*** for decades when data shows it just doesn’t work. It doesnt measure your intelligence just how much you remember s***.
-bring back cursive, this troubles me we essentially killing off a type of handwriting because (goes back to the reading thing), this is essential to reading historical documents.
-address these kids situations at home. Increase funding in social programs (and s*** even these schools). Increase minimum wage so parents can be at home and not out working 3 jobs to make the bills pay. Sometimes it’s not neglectful parenting as much as it just is poverty lol. It’s VERY hard to concentrate when your stomach growling (shoutout to schools getting rid of free lunch)
-free adulting literacy classes because as ppl have said itt, it is a LOT of grownups…that are borderline illiterate. And those tend to be the ones having kids
controversial one but I’d say get rid of charter schools
My pops was a teacher for decades, I saw the s*** take a toll on him before he essentially called it quits around like ‘08.
I will say this, mandatory therapy by itself is NOT good. There are so many nuances in that, chief among them being the quality of service, that might make things worse. Public education is already gutted for money.
I remember they had me in a group therapy session in my 8th grade year and i wanted to slap the s*** out the therapist

He said mandatory therapist, not therapy.. lol.
I wonder how many kids are just burnt out.
besides the lack of parental reinforcement at home, where is the inner desire to learn supposed to come from for these kids?
How do you make students stay engaged in waking up everyday at 8am to go somewhere where it's questionable if they're even being treated with respect, to memorize a bunch of information that's presented to them without any real context regarding how that information will enrich them or could be applied.
How do you make kids give a s***(besides lying and telling them they can be whatever they want when they grow up) when they feel like any issue they have can be solved with the small computer in their pocket? When their favorite twitch streamer/tiktoker is making millions over their 2-job-having parent by playing fortnite and teaching them to be mean to girls?

there lies the question
how to make kids give a s***. because when they do, they are capable of incredible things.
but holy s*** man algebra and english and foreign language and art are insanely applicable to so many aspects of life
Also the older teachers have always been better to me. They always stay after school a good amount to help struggling students. These millenial teachers don't be doing that
they have to go to their part time job cuz the teacher salary not enough
well a lot of it is due to school funding being from the surrounding areas property taxes isn’t it?!
this is why I cant have children at this point in life, if I f*** up they f*** up tenfold. need to get my s*** together first, physically mentally politically and financially
No kid gang

This too. Schools in poor neighborhoods get less funding from the jump

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the subjects themselves are the problem. They're all important and I agree very applicable in so many areas of life.
Are those subjects presented and taught that way, though? I think that's part of the problem.
I've seen math described as so connected and supplemental to critical thinking, philosophy and logic, and it all sounds beautiful and interesting describing it like that, but that wasn't math to me when I was school. Math was just a boring set of rules that you were really only interested in if you wanted to be an engineer, because that's how it was presented (at least in my schools).
my ultimate point is that we're probably missing opportunities to have kids fall in love with learning partly because of tiring, boring delivery of the information.
