[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The schools aren't bad, they're just not equipped to hire and retain quality teachers so teachers are leaving, plus kids have emotional disregulation/trauma they can't articulate coming out of the pandemic that at this point, they've been repeatedly punished for and schools don't have the resources to help with that.[/quote] The parents are the problem. There seem to be very many who are ignorant and entitled who expect schools to do the child rearing for them. They also don't seem to grasp the basics of how to get their kids ahead in school but they fully expect that it will happen by other people's hands. Often it's their lifestyle and parenting that has caused their kids to drain public resources. We've all known a few of them, haven't we? Many are on this forum. This has led to the death spiral of education in Northern Virginia. Looking at the list of NMS semi- and finalists for this year is depressing. There are plus-or-minus three good schools in the entire region. My one public hs in the NE continues to churn out almost as many finalists as entire multi-hs districts around here to this day.[/quote]
