What have I dismissed? One room School would work, for a small population.
There are fewer than 400 one-room schools in the United States today, down from 190,000 in 1919. The majority of these schools are located in isolated Western towns, and over 75% are in California, Montana, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wyoming.
If a kids parents donāt value education at all, can you really expect a kid raised in that environment to do any better?
Iām confident my kid will value education because both me and his mother highly value it. Iām a nerd who constantly reads and sheās a special education teacher.

Tells me many thingsā¦but mostly my fellow liberal/progressives are enjoying a beautiful Sundayā¦in the real world.
It would workā¦small school at every block or two. Make em compete against one another.
Not liberal.
Yupā¦that is the biggest factor. i was raised by parents that did not finish High School. They both worked hard, and did well, Dad working as a operator engineer. Later they owned their own business. They grew up in the 30ās and 40ās. where a college education was not as attainable for most. And they did not push it on me or my 2 siblingsā¦none of us went to college. I did 2 years at a community college in my 20ās. A few credits shy of an AA.
I know that feeling to an extent. I went to college for 6 years total but I canāt prove it on paper.
Completely failed at the latter. Give them the former.
The government does not āprovide.ā It redistributes.

Question: On what basis should children of low resource families have the same educational opportunities (or healthcare for that matter) as those who come from high resouce families.
Where did this idea come from?
Sheās not my wife yet lol. Working on getting there.
And yeah thatās what she always wanted to do. At first she graduated with a degree in social work and then worked for child protective services. Then decided to expand her degree and get her license for teaching special needs.
Sheās very much a humanitarian.

Cool. My wife also works with with special needs kids as a paraprofessional.
āParaprofessionalā what?
Is your google broke?
Paraprofessionals are important members of a schoolās staff. Theyāre sometimes called instructional aides or teacher assistants. Paraprofessionals provide different kinds of support that help make classrooms more inclusive.
"Paraprofessionalā means āalmost professionalā and can be applied to any profession.
More accurately beside or next to a professional.
Such as? How does a teacherās aid make a classroom more āinclusive.ā
