Too dumb to fail: passing failing kids

[Macamus Prime]

Ah, but, it's still OK to shove 800 billion into the pockets of investment firms who fucked up.

Hey, let's take away school lunches as well. Free vaccines. All the money we'll save, we dump it into the banks. Let them really run the country at face value and not behind the scenes.

From what I've seen, the Teacher's union has very little to do with bad policies or stupidity. That tends to be the non-union members, or administrators.

The unions prevent any kind of change that needs to be made, and they also tie the district's hands in terms of being able to reward good teachers and boot bad ones out the door. That means they share a significant portion of the blame when it comes to bad education outcomes. The parents are still the primary reason and bear primary responsibility for their kids, but they are not the sole reason for the issues.

justifying money to one group because money was given to another is what's f'd up.

Some schools have all lunches free because they feel bad the little poor kids feel different.

Smart choice teaching our kids you always make the team, you always get to bat, and now you always get feed the same as everyone else.

In my day, free and reduced lunch was different food...like a cheese sandwich, piece of fruit, and a milk.

Just another way that the baby boomers are ruining the world for future generations...

If that is a normal practice in parts of your public school system, is that not enough reason to be up in arms?

If it was a "normal" practice of our public school system, we would have heard of it a long time ago. This is an anecdote.

Education should be a one size fits all government solution imposed upon parents with no choice offered in the matter. Really its for the best. Seriously.
