JD, from1985-2010 federal education spending more than doubled(138%) while
achievement and graduation numbers remained flat.
Blaming teachers and throwing $$$ at education and
hoping for improvement is a waste of time.
You have taught, and have to know it's the lack of interest in the
home, kids taking drugs and disrespect by the students that are
causing the real problems.
I sub taught in 5 different schools and can honestly say there were
maybe 2 or 3 teachers in the public schools that were just doing the minimum.
I saw all good teachers in the private schools as the parents were
paying $$$ and took an interest in their kids, and the the discipline
was such that a kid would be expelled or thrown out for any kind
of disrespect or trouble.
It was a motivating place to teach.
