you know you work for a quality organization when

You look through all the school board minutes, and keep score of the 45 teachers and 50 non certified new hires who started in August 2016, and every single one of them has “retired” before the last day of school of 2017. My name was not on that list, despite being suspended 7 weeks before the end of the school year.

What a crock of s~~~. I found out we were probably hired to satisfy some accreditation audit, and then let go. Of the 45 teachers I started with, it looks like only a handful made it a full pull, most were let go before Christmas Break. I almost made it to Easter. Last day was May 24.

I think the district could afford the all the veteran teachers and paid us new hires on margin or creative accounting. F~~~ers. We came from far flung parts of the country to this cow stink paradise only to be thrown away and replaced by unlicensed Spanish speaking paras… yeah, good quality education there. But if the school board told the truth, no one would go out there. A fine bunch of assholes. Those f~~~wits are in a real bind. The percentage of real homeowners and contributors to the tax base is relatively low, the majority of people served by my school district are immigrant meat plant workers, no English, 5 or 6 kids, renting their trailer or apartment. Half the town consists of single mothers with several kids each. The men were either killed crossing th desert, in jail/deported, divorced, unknown father, or working 3 jobs. The town lost at least 5 businesses while I was there. So the demand for services goes up, and the number of households paying in goes down.

The constituent community tells the school board what to teach, no rote learning of math facts, the kids do not have sufficient math background to deal with the curriculum, so we won’t use numbers while teaching fractions, we’ll use pictures. There are no spelling tests, because the kids can’t write, spell or read English, spelling tests will only make them feel like failure. No book reports…kids can’t read chapter books or follow a long story line. Well what can I teach? F~~~ me. My kids couldn’t even line up for lunch, straddling a tape line on the floor to point them in the right direction, walk quietly through the halls for 200 feet to the cafeteria, and get their tray of free food without someone f~~~ing it up.

I can’t tell you what a pleasure it is to be working with adults…lol my co workers are older than me by 15 years. I can feel the sanity returning to my life.

Thank you for calling it the “Rust Belt”, and not “Flyover” states. I hate when liberals talk about the middle of the country as just a bunch of hicks to flyover and not go talk to. These folks are just as important as any other portion of the country and their votes matter just as much.

tower, nice photo montage of Gary Indiana?

Venom, there are games within games within games.

My kids had an average reading level of 2.5, halfway through 2nd grade. I taught 5th grade.
The other fifth grade classes had an average reading level of 4.8. One criteria for special ed is 2 grades behind, but language can not be the reason for putting kids in sped. Before I got there, the other teachers sorted out the kid they wanted…all the good kids, took a couple clunkers and gave me the s~~~ty kids.

Everyday, I was called racist pig, accused of male superiority, all kinds of nasty s~~~
except I spent $400 of my own money making sure these kids had shoes and warm clothing for the winter, bought everyone hats and gloves, and spent $1500 on books for my in class library driving 180 miles to Amarillo Texas the nearest book store. I bought my class our own playground equipment so they wouldn’t have to fight the other 7 classes over the three playground b~~~~ the school provided. I also spent $500 on lunches, snacks and other bulls~~~ for the room. I wrote three letters on behalf of parents for whatever government agencies, had to call or email 13 parents on a daily basis.

Yeah, I’m the f~~~ing racist pig. OMG the parade of parent complaints…I gave each kid a set of 16 colored pencils, one pencil was white. I am promoting white supremacy by giving kids white pencils, along with red, blue, a couple shades of green, brown, black. yellow. Yes, that was a meeting after school with a parent and the principal.

using copy paper is racist…white paper. fine, I printed homework on black paper, brown paper, all different kinds of paper…yep another beat down in the principal’s office.

complaints for giving spelling tests, complaint because I didn’t get to help a special snowflake because we ran out of time. complaints about some of the stupidest s~~~ and I had to sit there with a straight face and just take it. never a thank you. never. I would fall over and die if one of those c~~~s ever said thank you.

F~~~ it all to hell. I’d rather straighten shelves at a huge retailer than go in a classroom again. The education experts say they want male elementary teachers, and that certainly lifted my spirits while going through certification training….but yet here’s how we men are f~~~ed over.

I haven’t written much about the internal politics of what my fellow coworker c~~~s were doing.

good luck Venom. I already jumped on that grenade, your turn.

Dude the school system you’re in sounds like HELL. It sounds unorganized, and run by women. I’m willing to bet that you are one of the few male teachers in the school period. I substitute teach right now, and i graduate with my Master’s next year. I have subbed for grades K-8. Man, these kids needs a strong male figure and quickly.

I remember going to a middle school and one of the teachers asked me if i wanted a permanent job because the kids in my class were behaving. I understand how difficult it is tho, to have a class that needs supplies and have parents who couldn’t be bothered to care. One thing i saw that could help with getting parents involved is giving the student extra credit points for their parents showing up to a meeting. I remember when i was in high school, our civics teacher gave us extra points on a test if we brought him packs of copy paper. 6 classes x 20 students each = Lots of f~~~ing paper!!

I’m 6-12 History, one thing that has saved me so far is that i will also be coaching football. The guys are more receptive to the coach because they know what will happen at football practice if they f~~~ up in class. People don’t really act up in the coaches class. I subbed in a 7th grade English class before, and after a firm tone of voice, everybody got quiet, and started doing their work.

Is there another school system near you that is more structurally sound and organized? Seems like a waste of a teacher who cares right now. And it’s really sad, because there are students who really want to learn but can’t due to other students.

We should talk more about this.

This is a lawsuit waiting to happen. The law states the teachers have to be certified.

If you convince enough of your fired coworkers to protest over the internet and raise a big enough stink about this, you might draw Education Secretary Betsy Devos interest into looking at this situation. This situation has everything wrong with the current educational system.

[From The AshesParticipant 149]

In Canuckicuck, we have an even more ridiculous thing happening.

Our post secondary institutions are cowtowing to the Liberal bulls~~~ of the TRC (truth and reconciliation communism).

All government institutions, including institutions of higher education must “indiginize” themselves (f~~~, even autocorrect doesn’t recognize that bulls~~~)

Bend over backward for the imagined sins of our forefathers we must, in the hopes of ingratiating ourselves to possible future voters. Such a horses~~~ construct I cannot even begin to comprehend the cluterf~~~ery of it all.

What happened to being judged on merit, and ones own performance in a certain school of study or a trade?

F~~~ this world.

[Anonymous 0]

It’s stories like these that show how the govt corrupts from the top down…collectivist dogma says there really is no “merit”, so holding kids to standards is bigoted or hateful. The dear leaders persecute good teachers, esp. male ones, because they hold kids to account for work and behavior.

Eventually good teachers stop demanding accountability and recite lessons robotically and babysit, …or just quit. The females take total control and run easy lowest common denominator lesson plans, and K-12 education becomes a giant daycare center.

Govt is destroying critical thought in this nation from the inside out. The miseducated children grow up to be miseducated adults, and the gynocentric idiocracy grows until we are too dumb to govern or defend ourselves.

Ahhh, every time you post about the absurdity of teaching, I thank the Flying Spaghetti Monster I dropped out of my education program at school for a straight up biology degree. Best decision ever. Thanks for the conformation of that choice.

I don’t have as much to add as the others, this breaks my heart knowing it’s come to this.

Start a MGTOW school. Dad’s will send their sons. You won’t be racist, but you’ll be sexist.

You can please some of the people some of the time. But, you can’t please all of the people all of the time.

Thank you for being a teacher. It’s akin to warfare now. God bless you May. You are a heart vessel of human kindness. A beautiful soul of goodness.

A dead community nothing more.

A MGTOW is a man who is not a woman's bitch!

Until recently, New York state required teacher aspirants to pass a literacy exam. However, less than half of minority candidates were able to pass, so the exam has been dropped. Guess it is more important to get bodies in the classrooms (and dues money to the union) than to give the children a quality education.
There have been many studies over the years that many of the students in the education colleges come from the bottom halves of their high-school graduating classes. And yet, they expected to be taken seriously as “professionals.”
May 7 is an example of Gresham’s Law: Bad money drives out good money. I wish him the best in all his future endeavors. He’s served his time in Hell.

[Anonymous 6]

One thing I will say about education in this country, it is a great way to make a whole bunch of money doing absolutely nothing.And when I say a lot of money, I’m talking about administration level people and above. Teachers get the short end of the stick all the time, and its the kids who suffer the most
