The future of public schools

She works with special needs kids…helping them in many ways, including helping them feel included in class with the other kids.

You will be better accepted Johnny if you change your name to Nancy and start dressing accordingly.

WTH are you talking about? Are you obsessed with trans issues?

How is that “inclusive”?

Well?

My girlfriend does that a lot at the school she works in. She’s only got a handful of kids that are permanent to her. The majority of them go to regular classes but she designs the others special coursework to help them with regular classes. Basically those kids are assigned goals to reach that are more to their level but are integrated into regular classes. It’s really interesting.

It’s a ton of work but she really likes it.

I’m not sure where it came from. I do think society should make an effort to help everyone attain a basic education regardless of their economic status. But I don’t think society should blow a bunch of money on risky post high school people. The risk is way too high they’ll bomb.

It’s another thing I like about Germany. They use public high school to establish what you are talented at and push you towards it. For your college in that field it is provided by society. Because it’s a lower risk than just letting them do whatever they want.

the problem kids have IEPs written for them but then they’re set free in the schools

“special education only” or “juvenile hall” schools are illegal… fair and equal… unless the students are convicted of a crime…

They do have alternative schools to send more problematic children in most districts. But it is an area of public education that is poorly funded. So they do everything in their power to keep them in the regular school due to it costing so much more to place them in an alternative center.

It’s over before that.

Boys
0-7 play with them
7-14 teach them
14 up-advise them

From Islam I believe.

But not fair to anyone else.

What makes conservatives deplorable? Are you talking about all the conservative members of this forum?

In other words the only thing Dems are guilty of is not making government bigger? All their other policies and leadership… perfection.

A logical and more practical approach to education could easily provide labor force with workers who have the knowledge and skills needed for most employers by the time they are 17/18, and make the additional four years of college unessary.

What do you do with them otherwise? If not educate… then… what?

Islam or not but sounds right.

Some cons are deplorable…some libs deplorable. I am not limiting that opinion to this forum.
