Our teaching system has become the model of the socialist “need above right” movement.

My grand daughters’ lists for ‘school supplies’ were rife with cornucopia excess both in the type and amount of items needed. Somebody please tell my why one of my grand daughters in Kindergarten, 2nd grade or 4th grade needs ONE HUNDRED TWENTY Ticonderoga Number 2 pencils? Or why they need a dozen boxes of 24 or 36 Color Crayolas? Or why they need triple, quadruple, etc. the amount of the other stuff?

It is because these socialist/Democrat teachers are taking the excess away from the white children and GIVING it to the Mexicans and blacks in the classroom. That’s why.

These lists of mandatory school supplies seem to become more lengthy and more anal-retentive every year. You wonder if the schools districts have made deals with certain brands to promote their products for a kickback.

They don't. I still had my 4th grade crayons to pass down to our kids. Some of the multiples are because some parents can't be bothered to provide supplies so we have to take up the slack. I used to sub and witnessed teachers throwing away garbage cans full of brand new supplies at the end of the years.

Well, then the parents have got to get together and say NO!

A kid couldn’t use 120 Ticonderoga Number 2 pencils during his whole school career.

Great, parents pay school taxes (not all of them, mind you) and then they get to supply pencils to a bunch of illegals. They should be on the phones en masse.
