Idk but Iowa gotta be up there
One of the first states to legalize gay marriage and top public schools to actual maga hogs in less than a decade
True! And my district is 60%+ at risk and rising.
Why the fuck would you care about my class if mom and dad are fighting/divorcing or you don’t have food or you have to walk to school in -30 wind-chill because your school won’t delay?
I wouldn’t. I don’t know what the answer is, I just know it’s fucked and becoming more fucked.
Expect things to get a lot worse.
I teach HS. Zero comprehension skills. Either can’t or won’t read or follow basic directions. My gradebook looks like a shitty battleship game with all the red missing assignments.
And I teach agriculture and mostly give participation and completion points. They just don’t do anything.
Coupled with a teacher shortage and mass resignations due to pay stagnation and more and more being asked of teachers. Oh and like COVID making every teacher sick all the time.
Fun times in the school system.
Which, speaking of, when we getting these? Because I ordered them right away and haven’t gotten them yet and my car has stopped working so having an at home test would be pretty neat ngl
Can’t wait for more years of weirder and more dangerous shit.
In Iowa we had a tornado in December, it was 30-40 for the longest time, then it was -30 in January (usually not -30 range until February). The wind has also been especially bad this year.
It’s gonna be a fun time watching climate change kill us all.
Ope looks like we need to increase military and police budgets to account for added expense.
No we’re not raising teacher pay, why do you ask?!?
Edit: all this shit with education is just going to lead to the abolishment of public education. You want your kid educated? Pay for it, dickhead.
TIL there’s a no strike list and it doesn’t just say: everything
Broke: Biden and Liz Cheney 2024
Woke: Biden and Dick Cheney 2024
Lol at least they like, test them and they’re wearing masks.
Come out to the wild west in Iowa. No mask mandate. If one of my students tests positive, I’m not told. There’s no testing required or quarantine.
The only reason we don’t have staff and students out is because no one gets tested so everyone sick probably has it but no one knows for sure.
But if it does get really bad here we have like 3 subs total so we’ll see what happens lol
