These SCHOOLS

We live in a very violent society. Kids see cops using violence to solve problems. The gov starting wars to solve problems. They get away with it. So why not them. Add the easy availability of guns. Paranoid parents having weapons around

Would I teach ? Uh how much to teachers make ? Not worth the time commitment. Well, no way to elementary, middle or high school. Teachers have no authority to hand out any discipline and the kids know it.

I do have in the back of my mind to become a college professor though. I have a graduate degree. I could easily teach junior college marketing or finance classes. And I would be more than willing to give those cute young girls some extra "tutoring" to make sure they get good grades.

If I was a high school teacher in the inner city I'd have a gun in order to protect myself from the animals roaming the building. Although the police and government actions are weak copouts for justifying bad behavior, the problem of course starts at home. The welfare collecting animals don't teach the younger animals the importance of education and respecting educators. Not to mention you have the fake news media encouraging disrespect for authority and sanctifying criminals. I give all the credit in the world to teachers because they are in a tough spot but try their best knowing their administration won't support them.

Just this week, one of my good buddies is a high school teacher. A student tipped him off that a fellow student had a gun and ammunition in his backpack after class. My buddy found the student wondering the halls and escorted him to the principal’s office. Since the student is 18, he’s sitting in jail right now awaiting his first hearing on Monday. I’m sure he will retire as soon as he is eligible, which may be after this school year.

Not to revive a necrothread but this is a good example of the bullshit. youtube.com What is this high school kid doing beating on a little elementary school girl? Why are they even on the same bus? See this why these schools are trying to ban filming, they don't want you to see the evidence of complete disarray that's going on.

yeah i saw the uncensored footage at another site - the bigger kid should be taken to some yard and be shot on the spot.

i always wondered if some teachers ever tried this approach: it's the first day of class. if i was the teacher i would ask the whole class to raise hands if interesting in the opportunity of learning and seeking further knowledge. then i would ask if anyone is not. if hands are raised for the last question i would make the following deal: you can leave and never have to come back to class and i'll give you a passing grade. this might weed out the riff raff.

The COVID lockdowns have made parents and kids unhinged and they haven’t recovered yet.

Not only is classroom violence a problem but the number of fights and violent incidents at high school and youth sporting events are on the rise.

Early in the football season, I posted a warning about the future of high school football and since then the number of shootings and fights continued to increase

At least two high school basketball games in December just in the Dayton area where I am now had to be stopped over fights

And almost half of referees and officials feel unsafe anymore leading to a critical shortage

Just google “ violence in high school sports” and see how many hits - just in 2022

^ I'd love to referee or coach hockey, but I won't because I don't want to deal with the above crap.

Being a public school teacher must be one of the most miserable, unrewarding jobs out there today. It's really no surprise that mostly unemployable liberal zealots are left. I am a small-government conservative. I believe the Department of Education should be dissolved. Florida's new school choice law is one of the best. All education decisions should be made at a state and county level.

My sister was head of a school library. She was liberal but became annoyed by liberal intolerance in her school. She was told she couldn't put up a Christmas tree in her library anymore because it was a religious symbol. She would read "Twas the Night Before Christmas" to the kids but was told she couldn't do that either. Calls were made to ban older books that had racial stereotypes.

There was also intolerance coming from the conservative side with some conservative parents wanting books banned that mentioned sex or the theory of evolution. In order for people to get along, you need people to have some tolerance for opposing viewpoints and that type of tolerance seems to be declining.

I am in an 18 person poker league. 6 years ago, 8 of the players officiated various junior high and high school sports. Mostly because of how fucking awful parebts have become, but partially because of how violent kids have become, only one still does it and he is done for good when hockey ends.
