Well our situation is the F'ing Teacher's Union are a bunch of self serving traitors.

We had no problem getting a good education when I was younger with 60 people in a class with one teacher.
Today, if it were up to the Teacher's Union, there would be one Administrator, two teachers and two assistants per child. What a load of caca!

The super secret reason no quality education occurs on a regular basis in public school is the simple reason that "CHILDREN DON'T COME TO SCHOOL PREPARED TO LEARN"

The reason for this is the change of culture as represented by the mostly self indulgent parents who have little or no time for their kids.

Parents don't in great percentages truly put their children before themselves. They say they do, but the lack of preparation for school PROVES THOSE STATEMENTS FROM PARENTS ARE BUNK!

The Teacher's Union shake when they see people home schooling. They can't grow their union and they are proven to be a lousy bang for the public buck.

The thought that teachers need a higher salary is also bunk. Most are the 2.0 students from college, not the 3.65 graduates who took better jobs.
So we are also dealing with moderately capable people who even have the nerve to create their own teacher language for what they are trying to do in order to have them sound like they are smarter than they come close to being.

Yes there are nice teachers as well as the rotten ones out there today.

The real issue is that UNTIL PARENTS PREPARE THEIR KIDS TO LEARN IN A CLASSROOM, public schools will fail.

They also puposly want illegals in class for the sole purpose of growing teachers in their union. It is a gross perversion of our education system and puts our citizens in an even worse condition.
The TEACHER'S UNION IS A SPECIAL INTEREST ONLY!

That is a mild bit about how I feel about that...and how was your day? LOL
