Schools need more HOMEWORK! Elementary school: 1 page Math. Very occasional projects. Little to nothing ELSE. Recommended, not required, 20 mins Reading. This is totally inadequate. They should be required to read a book every week or two and write a short explanation of the story. Children can absorb so much more without being burnt out and benefit from having less time to spend on gadgets, which destroy their brains and grades. They should have an hour of homework every evening. Give the parents a chance to work with their children and see where there needs are. I know teachers are overburdened already but I feel there needs to be more frequent parent-teacher meetings, mid and end semester with realistic goals set for improvement. As for the English questions in Elementary, many were really bad. As a parent I could not figure out what on earth they were talking about. I mentioned this in parent-teacher meetings. The questions were ridiculous. Who sets these? Who decides the curriculum, who approves the books, the questions? It seems that over the years teachers have less and less say and "the system" has taken over and teachers just do what they are told to do. My perception, quite possibly wrong. Should cell phones be banned from school? No. Restricted to lockers. Yes. Used During school hours? No, unless emergency. Ear buds / other gadgets - same. IMO. But, phones, gadgets "social" media is part of our kids lives, not was not part of our lives, so schools should teach about these things and the dangers of what really is anti-social media and the dangers as well as the benefits. They might include a session where kids show there favorite apps, things they do. Could be very constructive, rather than outright ban. Not to get political, but lets get political, sort of. Why do politicians get premium healthcare and not teachers (and vets)? Isnt there something wrong with this?

Carl Tipton states that 9 out of 10 teachers ‘will put up with low pay and poor benefits if we can fix the discipline’. Either Mr. Tipton is engaging in hyperbole, or he has never actually spoken with a teacher in his life. While discipline is certainly an issue, I guarantee that teachers would manage the discipline for better pay and affordable healthcare for themselves and their families.
