Less education funding. Inflation. Schools closing. Low teacher pay. Large class sizes. National funding being tied to standardized testing.
Whenever school funding is on the ballot in my state, it rarely passes. Kids and teachers do not have the resources they need to be successful and it will continue to get worse until the president makes it a point to improve it. This is far from a new problem though. The government wants our nation to be full of people with below average intellect. I don’t see any other reason not to invest in everyone’s future.
It’s not just financial though. Mississippi spends around $12k per student, and Oregon spends about $17k - that’s over 40% more per kid. California spends $24k.
The way we do schools needs to be fixed top-to-bottom
You’re probably right. I just hate that teachers have to ask for basic school supply donations to do their job. For example, glue sticks aren’t something a kindergarten teacher should ever need to worry they will run out of. Give these people the resources to be successful. What do you think needs to change?
