Tell that to legislators who read this and say “lol no let’s buy more testing” and district leaders add more time requirements for weekly staff meetings where principals reread a bulletin for two hours straight, rather than let a kid get anything but recycled air in a building
Can’t help but think that’s the point - to give parents more reason NOT to send their kids to school, or at least make it more hostile to do so. More interest in voucher programs is already a thing, and it was enacted in a district in Georgia with absolutely expected and hilarious (not for the kids) results. But the less interest there is in public vs private schools, the easier it will be to throw any talk of equity in education, let alone instruction
Make private schools the “reasonable” option, then Jack up the prices when families have divested from public, and then it’s the only option - at a price no one in their tax bracket can afford
(I do not support this, it’s just my doom and gloom from all the attacks on schools from the Magats)
Madness!
