Wretched Whitmer signs law allowing cafeteria workers and school bus drivers to teach school due to staffing shortages

That is a de facto admission that “professional” educators are worthless—something many of us suspected for a long time.

Home schooling bump.

If a kid is gonna get taught by a janitor or food server, it should be their parents!

[joe fonebone]

I have a question.....
Why do you need a bachelors degree to teach second grade math?

[Mr. Jeeves]

Why not auto workers? Any union member in good standing seems to be sufficient - and the kids might actually learn how to do something practical.

[MtnClimber]

Why do you need a bachelors degree to teach second grade math?

To become indoctrinated in marxism and the techniques to continue the indoctrination.

"Michigan had to pass these laws because her VAX mandates caused staff to quit."

Two wrongs don't make a right.

[daniel1212]

"They will likely do a better job that these leftist teachers do."

I suspect the same myself.

[Waverunner]

Hey Mom I learned to cook shit on a shingle today!!!

[Jay W]

More than likely, the kids will learn just as much if not more from the cafeteria workers and the school bus drivers!

[Carl Vehse]

Next, the Michigan legislators will pass, and Wretched Gretchen will sign, a bill to allow hospital janitors and ambulance drivers to practice medicine and surgery in hospitals because of a shortage of doctors and nurses.

mm-hmm g’mornin’ class! I’z gonner teach y’allyer writin’ skills tuhday.

Watch test scores go up.

[PGalt]

Wretched Whitler ALERT

[GingisK]

That merely means that the "professional teachers" are as qualified to teach as cafeteria staff. Who said parents don't know enough to make these decisions?

Our civilization is collapsing. People need to do something in addition to blogging.

[RKBA Democrat]

A step in the right direction. It would be awesome if they brought in welders, plumbers, and truck drivers to teach. But I doubt those folks would be willing to take the pay cut.

[Brilliant]

They will probably do better than many of the teachers.

[The Great RJ]

I was a college professor for 15 years, but lack those teaching credentials to teach in a k-12 school. I would need to take nearly two years of undergraduate “education” classes to qualify to teach even high school social studies. Yet Whitmer would allow now school employees without degrees to teach? We are living in the Twilight Zone.

[Cowgirl of Justice]

I hope they do such a good job that the teachers need to start driving busses and serving up food in the cafeteria for what those workers were earning.

[Candor7]

Amen to that. It would be an improvement.
