No budget for armed security guards? Maybe if teacher unions stopped demanding ever higher salaries and privileges as a reward for ever declining scores there would be enough money and probably not so much aggression!
Nothing personal...I teach too!
Get rid of unions. Stop protecting the incompetents at the expense of the excellent. Stop promoting secular humanism values free education. The kids will respect education more.
Where do you teach? I teach in Montana and believe me money is not going to teacher salaries and the unions out here are VERY weak. Most base salaries are 18,000 to 22,000 dollars. A person cannot raise a family on a teacher's salary out here. (I do agree with you on unions, by the way) FYI I have also taught in Michigan and Florida so I am able to make some comparisons.
