28,796 dollars per year here to educate a kindergardener. Not a joke. And you should see the amount of school infrastructure spending and school construction that went on since covid started. Positively surreal. Whole k-6 building got an overhaul, but they appear to be holding classes out doors on the grass.
So, neither the number of teachers nor dollars spent changes a thing? Except their fat pocket!!!
Back in the late-’90s, the Wall Street Journal wrote a piece that showed quite convincingly that test scores began dropping in lockstep with the unionization of public school teachers nationwide.
res … ipsa … loquitur …
Government truly fucks everything up it touches.
The only solution to this problem, and most other problems with education, is to enact complete separation of education and state. Unfortunately, most people have been so dumbed down and brainwashed in the public schools that they can’t understand that, so it is a Catch-22.
Yep. I watched the black superintendent of Memphrica city schools turn out a generation & 1/2 of illiterate students before deciding to run for Mayor. He won in a squeaker (supported by the same illiterate people who were now voters) and ruled for 20 years, or so, with little competition after the first race was won. Local radio personality called him King Willie.
D’toilet?
Memphrica aka Memphis
No no no no!!! Just looking at the graph one can see that the $$ and staff had to increase or the scores would have gone down!
Your basic less than nothing for whatever you spend.
Other than in government and universities, where the hell else are all those fruitcake liberals going to find a job?
Now do one by race.
Criminal.
graphs/tables like this piss me off the same way it does you guys but it isn’t really accurate–
when you subtract the cost of special ed (i lump all students who are not completely mainstreamed as special ed,it may not be the proper term if some one decides to correct me),mandatory spending,voter mandated lower class sizes,etc., the cost per student has probably not gone up all that much–
if you’re in a medium to large school district you’ll have lots of students who have tutors & sometimes even personal aides–
test scores–broken or never formed families,parents afraid of or not caring about discipline,of course test scores are going down–
public schools do suck. Protect your children people,
opt out.
