In the school district I live in parents have been given a list of items to buy and then told to have the kids bring them all to school. The teachers then redistribute the supplies, giving the costlier items to low income kids and the cheaper stuff to kids they know come from better circumstances.
“The teachers then redistribute the supplies, giving the costlier items to low income kids and the cheaper stuff to kids they know come from better circumstances.”
Doesn’t it make you wish that all the parents would get together and go to the same Dollar Store and send all their kids in with the exact same cheap stuff? The teacher’s head would probably explode.
