Public Education

There is a purpose for everything on the wall.

Like the Obama posters?

Everything is not political.

There is a purpose for everything on the wall.

I don't recall anything on the walls during my school years except things like maps which stayed there.

 

[Wally]

But where is it going? Where is all this waste you’re experts at and have seen?

Come to my state. We have districts that received something near $25k per pupil, not their money, state taxed money someone else pays. The building are falling apart. Layers of high paid administrative folk though. The kids are failing in school.

Not true for the lower grades.

Things have changed since you've been in school.

Maybe less stuff on the walls and more studying? Worked well for hundreds of years.

What stuff on the walls we talking about that will improve learning?

I will fully admit there are too many administrators and managers. My district is the second highest taxed in our county and second most in administrative personnel.

In-room teachers should make $80,000/yr minimum. Add-nothing administrative people half that.

That should not be allowed.

Indeed.

You have A/C. We've lived without it for thousands and thousands of years, same bad argument.

Times change.

That stuff is all well and good, but not necessary.

Ever heard of a soap scrimmage

Saw Christie say on the debate he got rid of school unions

 

[Sportello]

That should not be allowed.

Indeed.

Agreed. Libs of TicTok promotes hate. She demonizes people to incite violence.

Florida has school vouchers. Would you like a tv?

Florida school vouchers can pay for TVs, kayaks and theme parks. Is that OK?

A new list of allowable expenses for the publicly funded program is raising eyebrows.

Libs of TikTok merely reposts what leftists are posting. It says a lot about those posts if merely exposing them is considered to be their demonization.

My small town only educates kids up to the sixth grade ( then they're sent to other towns for middle & high school ) at a single school building. Which needs a principal and a superintendent for twenty teachers and aides.
