[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m voting for Youngkin because I’m a teacher and see first hand what is happening in public schools in the area. We need drastic changes. Many teachers in my school will be voting for him.

As for the topic of school choice, I’m all for it. Public schools need some competition. Currently they are running wild and no longer care about academics.  [/quote]

Vouchers just destroy schools.  That won't fix problems at the administrative level or with fads in progressive education.  [/quote]

And th will ensure pp’ working conditions get even worse when she’s expect do all the same stuff with fewer resources as funding moves to private and charter schools.

And she’d also better hope she never gets a class of kids who aren’t as strong academically, because Republicans favor accountability systems where teachers are evaluated based on things like non-relative SOL performance.  Doesn’t matter how much you did to get Billy caught up this year when he came in two grade levels behind, if he just barely fails his SOL pp will get dinged for it in her performance review.[/quote]

Youngkin plans to raise teacher pay, raise public school funding and focus money and resources into special ed, particularly learning loss from being kept out of school for 18 months and given zero instruction in the case of many special ed kids.

People are done listening to the left's scare tactics.[/quote]

Cmon man. You're telling me the Trumpy Republican wants to increase public school funding? I will eat my shoe if there's a Republican alive who is going to increase public school funding, over what a Dem wants to do.[/quote]

Why is Virginia teacher pay 50th in the country?  There have been Democrats in charge for 8 years.   Maybe time for a change.  [/quote]
