Yes. So are you proposing that we reopen those? And if so, who will fund them and staff them? |
+1 |
School systems can use the monies they have to open and operate them and pay teachers more to work in them.. |
Yes. Defund the unions, and fund separate facilities for violent kids. |
School system funds are being cut everywhere and you all seem to support nuking the Department of Education which also provides funds to school systems. Where is this money coming from? |
wut |
Whatever money a particular school system has, they can designate a portion for special schools, just like they used to do. The very sad, hard truth is that some kids will only acquire minimal skills. |
Yes, and they already do that. But there is never enough money. Every student you’re complaining about should be in a situation with more support and more staffing - and that student’s parents and teachers are pushing for that 99% of the time - but they are told that there isn’t the money for a special school. |
I do understand because I've worked in the special education field for a long time. There just aren't easy answers. |
Yes, so is doping all the kids up with ritalin, constant cell phone use, and parents no longer disciplining their kids... that's if they even have two parents. |
Or kick the S out of your kids a couple of times and let them know their crap is unacceptable. |
I would much rather have state taxes and local property taxes fund it than everything going to DC and getting lost in the shuffle of big federal departments. |
Military/Military School will instill discipline. |
So you support zero federal funding and no federal department for oversight? OK. |
News Flash: 1. Student scores have consistently tanked since Jimmy Carter signed off on the creation of the Department of Education. 2. Classroom violence has become out-of-control since the creation of the Department of Education. We, the American taxpayers DEMAND that VIOLENT kids are REMOVED from our classrooms. Desks are NOT for throwing. Innocent students and teachers are getting assaulted with zero consequences for the perpetrators. “Federal funding and oversight” has been a complete disaster for American students and their teachers. Children can’t learn when they’re in a constant state of fear of assault. |
