    The last thing the schools are interested in is a quality education for our kids. It’s appalling. If fully disgusted with Jeffco and their so called “hybrid” plan. It’s a fucking joke. Planned to fail. They have ZERO interest in the kids going back to a classroom and are just going through the steps. My son is starting high school and won’t even have his schedule until the 19th. School starts on the 24th. No mention if he will even be able to see where the fuck to go before “in school learning” starts. Give me a break.

    They've never been interested in a quality education.

    Both the video and link are featuring and/or written by John Taylor Gatto. He was named New York City Teacher of the Year in 1989, 1990, and 1991, and New York State Teacher of the Year in 1991. He then quit and set about to expose the travesty that is modern education.

    I've been thinking about this a lot recently as well. I really feel bad for the kids as they will likely be the biggest losers. However, I think children have an opportunity to learn more by working with their parents than they do at a public school. The resources CS1983 put up look really good. "The Good and the Beautiful" looks better than anything I've seen in a public school for language arts. For what it is worth, the Engage New York math curriculum is available on line as well. You can preview the lessons and find one method that works and go with it. You don't have to go through the whole thing. That is what my daughter's teachers did.

    These are interesting times. I can see the education system eating itself. Here is a tidbit for y'all.

    Effective Sept. 1, 2018, educators endorsed in elementary, English, math, science and/or social studies seeking (or any middle level endorsement) to renew their professional license must complete or demonstrate completion of professional development activities equivalent to 45 clock/contact hours or three (3) semester hours in Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CLD) education that meets or exceeds the standards outlined in section 5.12-5.15 of 1 CCR 301-37. This requirement must only be completed once during the term of the educator's career. To find out more about these requirements, if and how they apply to you and what you'll need to do by when, visit the English Learner PD Requirements Information for Educators page.

    This is from the CDE webpage. Much of this is geared toward exposing teachers (especially the new ones) to the disparity of education systems in the U.S. and the foundation of "privilege and oppression" (enculturation) upon which our public education system was built.
