That's exactly why I don't believe we need to continue to dump money into our public education system and worthless teachers. I'm tired of hearing of teachers being unpaid, until you hold them accountable they will continue to do just this.
How about they let me hold the kids accountable when they dont do work, study, pay attention, or jack shit causing me to slow down everything for those few dumbasses?
I also love our governments plans: your school is failing, heres budget cuts. Bigger classes, less individual time, fewer aids to help with reading (because you know every parent is so involved these days), leading to lower scores, more cuts, and so on.
That said, I believe there is a buttload of 'teachers' who should be out on their asses since they recieved tenure and are just skating along doing nothing. Theres so many ways you can teach without packets and books- Hell, my class reinacted Monty Python to show the medieval class society and the hierachy within it.
