I hope that citizens running for school board seats can turn this marxist crap around.
No way I would send my kid to public school at this point.
The Marxist, anti American LGBT crappola?
F that.
Resign.
They never will, not this current era of parents.
Government schools are just a bad idea. Inherently flawed because the State has control and the parents don’t. Government schools should be illegal.
There's an error in that sentence.
Actually, the politicization of the education system has destroyed the education system...and that has destroyed parent-teacher relations.
Note here when one says the system has become politicized, that is not quite accurate. The system has become overrun not just by politics in general, but by a certain kind of politics...Marxism and its new step-child, Wokeness. It is doubtful that the education system, in its current state, can be fumigated in a way that removes the political infestation.
So that means a restart.
Teachers who can prove they are not political might have a future. Others...NO.
Work hard and long to regain it maybe? Maybe teach and not indoctrinate? Do that and check back in twenty years.
you basically need a brand new generation of teachers to replace the current ones
there’s no way to ever forgive someone who tried to chemically castrate your kid, turn them into a circus freak, and train them to be Communist revolutionaries... the betrayal could hardly be more complete, the breach more irremediable
What’s at stake here? The souls of our children. This is not some peripheral issue. This is the hill we die on. Letting these impressionable children be sent to communist indoctrination camps is simply unthinkable for any parent who understands this. One should add, that private schools, for the most part so-called Catholic schools are just as infected with the toxins.
I don’t believe teachers even care about regaining respect from the parents. We need to dissolve the teachers unions, and then get rid of the vast majority of these teachers.
Government-run schools have no place in a free nation.
Public education is always going to be a big, juicy target for marxists and every other group of bad actors coming down the pipe.
The basic transaction of public school is that parents get someone else to watch their kids, and public schools get to turn the kids into whatever they want.
“Education” is the marketing brochure, and has nothing to do with the real aims of public schooling. It can happen if the parents are involved and the kids motivated, but it is entirely optional and most parents and kids opt out.
The primary output is ignorant people indoctrinated with whatever groupthink is popular. One hundred years ago, public schools indoctrinated racism. Fifty years ago they indoctrinated atheism and humanism. Today they indoctrinate marxism and technocracy.
Everyone raises the specter of illiterate people running about without public schools. This ignores the masses of illiterate people being turned out by public schools.
How Can Teachers Expect to Regain Support from Parents?
Think teacher, not teachers.
A conscientious individual teacher actively not adhering to the progressive agenda will have no problem with respect from parents
I don’t think the propagandists and activists care, and they far outnumber actual teachers.
The Leftist Teachers will never regain respect from Parents
For starters, you can stop hiring teachers that come to class dressed like this.
Yes, this is the shop teacher and this is how he dresses for work every day.
Be honest with them.
First off, lose the utterly worthless Teacher’s Unions. Then stop trying to sexually abuse and brainwash our kids. As a bonus, try to actually teach our kids reading, writing and arithmetic.
