RE: Feeling Bitter?

in Discovery-itlast year

As I think I've mentioned to you before, much of my family in the US are public school teachers, so I know all about the hardship going on over there with that career choice. It sucks that it just keeps getting worse and worse. Unfortunately it doesn't seem like it will get better anytime soon. Right wing radicals, which seems to be the entire party these days, just keep trying to cut school funding even more. I just read a story the other day that challenges to both school books and topics taught are being challenged more than ever, making yet another headache for teachers.

I wish your wife the best of luck navigating the chaos!

Thanks, I appreciate it. Yeah, this new parents bill of rights stuff is getting out of hand. I'm all for government not being so involved in our schools, but this micromanaging by people who have zero clue isn't any better. Then you have federal and state guidelines that make it nearly impossible to place special needs students appropriately.
