Social Trump to sign EO ending department of education today

[N13]

It's cool bro. Admitting the mistake is not a problem.

It was pretty funny.

A miniscule event in a vast universe. Ain't life grand?

 

[evergreenrider]

Whats the next step of the plan? Just let each state deal with their own? OK, cool i guess. Did any of these states get any sort of heads up and guidelines how to proceed? Is the plan to just say, got fully private schools?

Because rich kids don’t use public schools. So might as well kill that public service too, right?
Keep them poor, keep them dumb, keep them down. It’s the Donald Trump way.

But we don't have the skilled workers in house so you see, we HAVE to import H1Bs by the bushel.

I would usually be against decreasing investment in education but the kind of things they are teaching these days are appalling, so it's better to shut the whole thing down.

Hmm, why wouldn't rich kids use public schools after 45 years of the DoE doing a great job?

These kinds of questions should marinade in your head a little longer before blurting them out.

And here it is, mask off ideology courtesy of Idaho:

"BOISE, Idaho — A middle school teacher in West Ada School District has been instructed to remove two inclusive signs from her classroom, sparking controversy over the district's interpretation of its content neutrality policy.
Sarah Inama, who has taught world civilization to 6th graders at Lewis and Clark Middle School for four years, was told by school administrators to take down signs stating "everyone in this room is welcome, important, accepted, respected, encouraged, valued, and equal" and "everyone is welcome here." The district claims these signs violate policy requiring classroom content to be neutral.

According to Inama, school officials informed her that the signs were considered personal opinions in today's political climate. "They told me that they were in violation of district policy because in today's political environment they're considered a personal opinion," Inama stated."

So according to these school officials people being equal and welcome is "personal opinion" and "not content-neutral."

Very interesting perspective. Yeah let's give the States all the power here and knee-cap Federal enforcement of anti-discrimination laws via funding.

Well we know he will chirp out something programmed into his head about how rich parents won't use the public school system because it sucks and being around working class kids suck, as opposed to the wealthy valuing exclusivity and luxury like the snobs they are..

 

[AmonTobin]

I thought this was pretty self-explanatory but I'll give you a hint.

Hmm, why would rich kids use public schools? after 45 years of the DoE doing a great job when they can afford to enroll in private schools, which have always received dramatically more funding.

 

[High Test With da Best]

Any time the sisters are mad about something you are doing something right

That's "sinister" sir!

 

[nostradumbass]

I thought this was pretty self-explanatory but I'll give you a hint.

Ah, so it's something you incorrectly guessed. No, they don't receive "dramatically more funding", they get less. The per student spending of public schools is several thousand dollars higher than private schools, the teachers at private schools are paid less, yet students at private schools average like 250 points higher on the SAT.

I’d like to see a source for that. Not the SAT scores comparison because more expensive schooling should produce better results. That’s something we’d expect to see.

@Sinister I just had to, glad you got a laugh, just go easy on my angus

Here's one with the numbers from a little over 10 years ago.

Average salaries for full-time teachers in public and private elementary and secondary schools, by selected characteristics: 2011-12

Explore the differences in teacher salaries between private and public schools, including pay scales, benefits, and career advancement opportunities.

soeonline.american.edu

Public school teachers in the U.S. earn higher average salaries than their private school counterparts, with public educators earning around $69,597 annually, compared to $50,971 for private school teachers. This difference stems from funding models: Public schools rely on government resources, enabling consistent salary scales, while private schools depend on tuition and donations, which can limit compensation. Public school teachers also often receive robust benefits, including pensions and health insurance, which add long-term value to their compensation. Some private schools offer smaller classes and personalized teaching environments, which may appeal to educators despite the lower pay.

I hope every kid with a retarded magat parent loathes them for the rest of their lives.

This is absolutely right and puts the answer in our faces. Do vouchers and lose 90% of the less than worthless administrators.

Those are teacher salaries but doesn’t reflect what what schools are receiving or what students are paying. Teacher-student ratios and workloads in public schools are often unreasonable.
