Eh as long as you support the arts and music we can do away with sports.I would probably need an assistant that isn't nearly as unjustly hostile as I am to sports programs.

Growing up I went to rural schools, dods schools, city schools with no name only PS and a number. And it all has to do with the curriculum based around the students who go there. If the kids are behind, have language issues, etc then no amount of money will fix that. And that can happen regardless of location. It's 100% about the student population.
I was always amazed how in my advanced classes everyone came prepared, had studied the material, done the homework, were attention and we blew through textbooks full of advanced material. Then I'd go to normal classes where the teacher spent half the class going over material some kids didn't bother doing at home and the rest of class babysitting the kids who had no desire to be there and just wanted to act out or talk or whatever else. Got nowhere fast.Growing up I went to rural schools, dods schools, city schools with no name only PS and a number. And it all has to do with the curriculum based around the students who go there.

I'm all for free birth control for all and an over abundance of sex edu starting well before puberty. My abortion comment earlier was tongue and cheek but if people would get on board with those first two items I think the third would become a rare occurrence.true, that's also a huge one
hey maybe if people could get birth control for free and women could get abortions for free and without any stupid restrictions like an ultrasound and a stern talking to we wouldn't have nearly as many of those single parent homes
BUT NOPE, let's just pretend we're not paying for it on the other end
Microflop goes to a STEM school and they do a few weeks of normal type class then a week on nothing but engineering a topic all day like building robots, flying machines, wind mills and sails, etc.
Yeah but the first step is getting people to wrap their minds around the idea that improving things costs money. This was what I was getting at with "do the schools better". It takes thought and evidence-based action as well as money.it requires a lot more than money, though. the entire system needs to be overhauled from the ground up. our public school system was designed for a country of farmers and factory workers. that's not america anymore, we need to revamp the system. the core curriculum is one step in modernizing education but a lot of concepts need to be restructured. students shouldn't be grouped primarily by age, the older a student gets the later they need to sleep and should start later, the lectures and note taking should be done at home on either personal or school supplied devices while time at school is spent doing handouts and getting help from the teacher or other students
money alone won't do it but doing all that will cost money.
"Hey we fucked up the gov't vote for us so we can fuck it up some more." I feel your anger.a lot of kids don't have that because parents are spending too much time working because wages were stagnating for so long because SOME PEOPLE keep pushing the idea of trickle down economics and it's fucking over all of us. maybe if all the asshole GOVERNMENT ALWAYS FAILS dingbats would stop shouting their misinformed belief that they cling to because their own schools and parents failed at teaching them critical thinking skills we could actually have a stable and secure middle class that can participate in their children's education
but no, those kids should just be bootstrapping themselves into success despite living in poverty. and when they become adults they'll be expected to just innately know that they're supposed to work hard and take personal responsibility as if by FUCKING MAGIC
As well as if the school is equipped to deal with those issues, as brony said.Growing up I went to rural schools, dods schools, city schools with no name only PS and a number.

That seems like it might forgo lots of other important aspects of education and areas he(?) might be interested in? Schools shouldn't be job training.Microflop goes to a STEM school and they do a few weeks of normal type class then a week on nothing but engineering a topic all day like building robots, flying machines, wind mills and sails, etc.

That's why I put a question mark.You clearly don't understand how a charter school works.

How old is he(?)?A charter school has a focus on a specific topic like art, dance, engineering, core, etc.

You mentioned the violence in cities earlier: I posted a really interesting article in the Butt Mustard thread recently about the correlation of leaded gas with violence that I think you would enjoy reading.
Yeah baby boomers grew up with lead poisoning because the oil companies paid scientists to lie. It's no wonder they fucked the country so hard then blame millennials for not thanking them when we're the ones paying off their childhoods.
Have you considered that putting a 5yo on a job track might not be the best idea?she is 5
Robert Kehoe lied. Clair Patterson risked his career and his life to expose that lie.
Today fossil fuel companies pay the smattering of scientists left willing to lie about climate change to convince conservatives coal is clean.
