I used to have a neighbor who was a principal at one the the Grand Rapids Public Schools. She told me (in a hostile tone) that parents like me, who want to know what is going on and voice their opinion; who get involved with the class and thereofor see things from the inside, are the problem. They don’t want us around.
To her way of thinking the involved parents are a problem. So when I see articles or hear the school administrators or teachers complain that lack of parent involvement is the main problem, I am skeptical. I agree to a certain extent, but parents are used as a scapegoat, just as “not enough funds” is the reason for every failing in the school system.
The unions are totally corrupt and the worst of them all is the school teachers union, a collection of godless secular humanist liberals of the worst ethical standards who teach gulliable children.
It is an outrage and only the parents of school children can reverse the evil of the democrat and rino run public school systems that brainwash young children.
That is what I found as well. They don’t want parents with a brain and western ethics seeing what a mess they have created within the school buildings. They want docile sheep who send their kids in for the soul and brain slaughter without a whimper. They want ignorant peasants.
In all my dealings with “professionals”, public school teachers and administrators are people with the lowliest of character I have ever encountered. That does not describe all of them! But it was most and my kids went to a wealthy school district. It is much worse in other places because we could afford “the best” teachers.
I never saw such outright, blantant lying and deception even when confronted with evidence. I really feel for the children (families) enslaved within the US public school system.
That's because the schools no longer educate on behalf of the parents.
Today they indoctrinate on behalf of the state.
