Lily Eskelsen García,the President of the NEA,calls her Union Members Racist!;)
Here's an old song I like.
YESTERDAY WHEN I WAS YOUNG ( Roy Clark) ~ Hee Haw 10th Anniversary
This from the people who went to jail kids for having a gummy bear that looks like a gun?
Yeah, we know, Lily.
More money.
Go to hell.
She might be on to something. Let’s jail students and give them an education so we don’t have to Jail them for being dumbass criminals.
Spare the rod & spoil the child led to decades of success.
After Dr. Spock, all hell has broken loose.
That’s ironic, as most of the people in jail are illiterate.
B.S.!
More FAKE NEWS and LIES!
I am part of a family that is mostly Teachers and Administrators.
The horror stories concerning the state of education in the U.S. make you want to start another revolution.
Well Lily Garcia, perhaps if you disband the NEA good things in education will return to our public schools.
The NEA is about money, not the kids.
We should stop spending so much on jails and make them places that people don’t want to return to.
Poor Lily (all that education I’m assuming), can’t figure out why “good kids” go to jail and prison.
Yes, it’s society’s fault there are far too many single and even zero parent homes.
It’s our fault they sell drugs, rape, and kill each other. it’s our fault they commit armed robberies. It’s our fault they burglarize other people’s homes. It’s our fault they car-jack. It’s our fault they riot, steal, and destroy property.
Why we just put them away because we’re mean racists. /s
What a fruit-loop.
Take a look at the curriculum . . .you get what you ask for . . . morally corrupted and misinformed students.
A slight variation of “Its for the Children!!!!”. argument.
Translated: Give Us More Money!
“educate” ? Hardly ... its more like indoctrination
This is claptrap. If kids do bad things they deserve their time behind the bars. Tired of this “unfair treatment.” If they saw the behaviors on the other side they’d change their views very quickly and start building better walls.
Throwing money at “education” is not the answer. Bringing back REAL education is a good place to start. Of course, the biggest factor is the home, and unless there is a real revival in America VERY soon, there’s not much hope there. I’m talking about a revival of historic proportions. Anything less will not change things fast enough to catch up with the decadence of our society. Father, I pray, in the Name of Jesus, for such a revival.
Prison is education by another means.
The real problem is the single parent to prison pipeline. Bet the farm they will never address that. The disproportionate punishment of blacks is the direct result of disproportionate bad behavior.
Not in California, Honey.
Yes!
1) The jails are far too cushy. Double up the inmates and rip out the TVs. Take out the libraries and gyms, and use the space for more cells.
2) The obscene "education" money isn't getting to the students. Cut teacher's salaries by at least 50% to start, and cull out about 90% of the non-educational "admin" positions.
KILL the teacher's unions and principal/superintendent associations.
3) Make sure we spend at least one dollar more on "education" than we do on prisons.
That so-called "liberal/progressive" movement intentionally diminished the role of parents and schools in teaching students about their Creator-endowed rights and responsibilities, their individual role as citizens in their communities, and the character training which once was the goal and aim of education in America
Do older readers of this thread remember when such character training was a part of the school day?
Do any now retired teachers remember when the National Education Association provided booklets and other materials based on Biblical teachings and America's founding documents in order to teach children their rights and responsibilities as good citizens?
Perhaps an examination of this web site may refresh the minds of such teachers. Or, perhaps a reading of this factual account of NEA publications may enlighten others who are younger to understand the degree to which the "progressive" control of education in America may have contributed to our current dilemma.
