Does this ‘teacher’ have a name and email address?

The original question is incoherent. Mr. Jones gun was confiscated at a stop? Ownership license? No such thing?

Although I’m 55 this year (and counting)...I have this memory of the eigth grade.

The science teacher skipped around the entire science book over the year....and I came to realize by the end of the school year that we had finished the entire book except for the chapter on evolution. It was a comical way to refuse to discuss the matter...but the teacher was a Baptist.

The math teacher wasted almost twelve weeks of the school year teaching us what should have been taught in two weeks. Incompetent and should have been let go by the school.

The history teacher summed up the entire Revolutionary War in three days, with thirty names or phrases for the test. We spent almost six weeks on the Civil War. And we wrapped up WW II in two days.

So no, I’m not surprised. Nothing much has changed in forty years....lousy instructors...bad books...and lack of any instruction.

Me too. It is a 19th century paradigm that outlived its usefulness for education in the late 20th century. It is no longer a good thing.

Unfortunately for me, my disdain for public schools comes out in my 122 mile round trip commute every morning, almost all on “non-freeways”. I’m rather agressive regarding passing school busses, regardless of what direction they are going.

I guess if you want a decent grade, you go along to get along.

Her parents should pull her out now.
