Oh yeah? Where do you teach? In a public school system, or some kind of unaccredited bible-thumper private? I’m betting the latter based on your absurd post. It reads like typical anti-union trash talking points.


Union teachers are the only bulwark standing between society and the brainwashed spawn being raised and indoctrinated by their rightwing loon parents. If it weren’t for public school teachers offsetting all these idiot parents and their lunacy, we’d be up to our eyeballs in school age little fascists. Teachers are typically the only people exposing these kids to Progressive ideals and questioning the nonsense these children are being fed at home.

Assuming you aren't a troll, you are part of the problem. Many parents don't want teachers indoctrinating/pushing political ideologies in a public school classroom.

If you think teaching facts and kindness is a “political ideology” then private is probably a good choice for you.

You're right. My kid goes to a non religious private school in another country (we are from DC but husband is on a temp assignment) and he has a "values" class once a week. It's great actually- they teach basics like honesty, respect, responsibility, perseverance, flexibility, empathy, etc, ALL without some stupid "Progressive" lens that teaches kids to hate each other.

Yea. And in NOVA no less. Meanwhile Terry’s rally in Alexandria yesterday consisted of 20 people standing in the rain. Until it was canceled, of course, as the candidate scrambled to deal with his latest self inflicted crisis

Much as Trump's rallies scared loyal Democrats into voting, I think these pictures will do the same. I know much of the crowd for the Alexandria rally this morning was young GOP/Hill staffers who were ordered by their bosses to go.

Trump is having a tele-rally on Monday, is he not?

Sorry Trump's not going to save you this time. The Democrats f**ked up big time on schools.

The Post-Schar survey found McAuliffe up by 1 point with likely voters and 3 points with registered voters, although Youngkin held a growing advantage among independents. Education was identified as the top issue in the race as concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic recede, and a majority of likely voters disapproved of President Joe Biden’s job performance.

Schools are struggling for a variety of reasons.

Republicans don’t offer actual solutions, only to defund them with vouchers.

The GOP is anti-teacher, anti-education, anti-intellectual. It’s laughable that people are fooled into voted for Rs over education of all things.

Oh you dislike vouchers now? All I heard from NOVA parents in the 2020-2021 school years is GIVE US VOUCHERS. I hate this school system, I want my vouchers. Well Youngkin listened to them about that and other things.

He's the candidate who cares about local Virginia policies. McAuliffe might as well be running for a national office for all he drills down to local issues.

I know one random nut pushing for vouchers.

Aside from that, I don’t know ANY parents pushing for vouchers.

Hmm okay, amnesia is it? Let me refresh your memory.

Education funds should follow the kids (vouchers), so that you could more easily afford to send your kids to a parochial or private school that met your scheduling needs, or get the ultimate in schedule flexibility, and homeschool.

Just give me vouchers, please. I have always been a public school supporter, but the past year has broken something.

Fcps inability to open back up to hybrid, when schools across the country have been doing so, with months of mounting evidence that it’s relatively safe, has convinced me that we should seriously look at vouchers.

If public schools are not going to open full time in the fall, should we start to push for school vouchers so that our children can go to private schools that are open in person?

You are mistaking a very vocal, minority with the majority. NoVA doesn’t want vouchers.

Because no one cares. It’s not like some crime was committed or there was an attempted overthrow of the election like on Jan 6, this was just a peaceful political demonstration. Right-wingers are wound up about it but most people don’t care because they’re not that interested in politics.

No one cares? According to whom, you? You’re the spokesperson for “most people”?

This liberal Virginia certainly does care and am disgusted. Sounds like plenty of people in Charlottesville did as well. This is so distasteful and so is your brushing it off as NBD.

Dirty politics as usual. I don’t understand why Jennifer McCellan wasn’t good enough for the Virginia Democratic Party and why Terry had to come back to “be our savior”. Ridiculous. This stunt is so sleazy and gross.

Since when is it up to schools to “teach” kindness?

You must have missed Kindergarten.

I actually moved beyond kindergarten. Wondering if the curriculum in some of these schools ever does?
