Maybe they could issue phones to kids that don't have them so the ones that don't care about school are busy watching tiktok instead of distracting others.[/quote]

Teachers need to care about all students. The ones who don’t care usually suck up more time and energy from the teacher. It is draining to work with them but you can’t give up. Generally, there is a reason why they are so disinterested. But it takes time to figure out what is going on with them. Small gains sometimes take huge effort. It is not cool for a teacher to ignore any student - at least that is my philosophy. [/quote]

Asking teachers to solve massive social problems by just caring more is how we got into this situation to begin with. No.[/quote]

This is so true.  In particular, detracking for equity purposes has noble goals but is failing.  Mixing ability groups means none of the kids get enough instruction tailored to their needs.  Kids that are disruptive, can't pay attention, and have lower levels of understanding cannot successfully be taught with kids who are usually a year above grade level.  And this contributes to the better students not wanting to go to school because it's too easy and sloppy student habits are excused.[/quote]

You forgot about the thousand points of light. That will solve this with some extra thoughts and prayers.[/quote]
