What ever happened to all those tough, seasoned, grey-haired, bespectacled, middle-aged single and widder ladies who gave us such great educations in grammar and high school decades ago?

Now the schools who are always crying for more money hire immature, unseasoned, and unstable freaks (like this one) and airheads who look like students themselves and obviously teach like them. Too many of them should be selling blue jeans at the teen-agers cheap jewelry stores in the malls.

Bring back sixty-ish Miss Holmberg who pounded all subjects into our skulls full of mush in grammar school......and who prepared each of us to enter high school literate and motivated.

The reason for the increase in marginally competent teachers is that we have reduced the students per class from 35 or so to 24.

Simple economics.
