Big Blitz Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 I give it 10 years then it’s over. The real estate tax savings are going to be necessary anyway to compensate for your 15 percent interest rate - but housing costs that hold because the government continues to subsidize it. Democrats turned their back on manufacturing. They’ll do the same with education. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precision Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 SAT score since 1972 are up very slightly (roughly 10%). This is especially troubling given the SAT resources now available. Also, there are no statistics cited regarding student that take the test multiple times or "super-scoring". In the age before the internet, you were lucky to find a book regarding the SAT (I was lucky, my parents found one for me at the mall). I knew no one that took the test more than once (mid 80's). Average SAT Scores Over Time: 1972–2022 The fact that scores have improved so little over 50 years speaks for itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in the burbs at least mine, it’s deteriorating. We’re in and paying property tax for a top tier school cluster in an excellent system, or at least it was. The DEI stuff is driving to the top of the agenda and scores are continuing to drop. lots of white male bashing, not so much with the math and science. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an element of truth that a group of morons (now, MAGA) voted for an unprincipled, lawless moron (Trump) because they disliked a candidate totally bereft of emotional intelligence (Hillary), whose 2016 campaign might be the greatest set of blunders I can recall in modern politics. But it doesn’t change the fact that MAGA is comprised principally of morons. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Ferguson forever Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 The only talented people that go into public education these days are idealists. The teaching profession is still undervalued and now under attack. And you wonder why results are worsening and so many educators are progressive. Compassion and idealism are not characteristics of the vast majority of MAGA's, not to mention that fluency in subjects like calculus and chemistry are as rare as hens teeth among the group.

Andy1 Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Content in textbooks has always been an issue. When I went to school, they never taught about the massacre at Black Wall Street in Oklahoma or a whole bunch of other uncomfortable truths in our history. Heck, in Catholic school, Jesus was always a white guy. Teaching and healthcare are two fields where instead of bitching about it, go submit an employment application. Both fields can certainly use the help. It’s easy to complain but much, much harder to do the work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
