1) yes 2) No, that would violate teacher's right to organize. But we need to limit unions' ability to make huge political donations. If they weren't able to pay off elected officials a lot of this problem would go away. 3) A better solution would be for states to implement a voucher system that allows parents to decide where their children go to school and have the school funding follow the student. Teachers' Unions would be force to improve their performance if they didn't want to lose most of their students and the associated money.

At the turn-of-the-20th-century, ninth graders had similar levels of education to modern day master’s degrees. This was accomplished by competitive private schooling.

Literally protects their jobs because they're guaranteed a body of students and therefore tax dollars. If you have a teacher or administrator that hates your kids or you, then you have no choice; the teachers union will destroy your child's life with falsely bad grades and constant punishment and probably sending CPS to your home. The obvious answer is to change the school district but that requires selling your home and buying another one that's more expensive. That's why home buying web sites had reviews for school districts for the home (although I can't find that data on Realtor anymore!) which made homes more expensive for good schools and really cheap for bad ones.

If i had stayed in school i would have continued to be held up by the way the school system specifically trys to ensure that no student can progress too far ahead of the "pack".

Good job parents! You have set you children up for a successful life! That is what PARENTS (not some government agency) are meant to do! Kudos to you! And Engineering! Hard science and practicality combined. We went the charter school route with our twin boys. One (co-valedictorian) chose not to go to college and assume debt. He has a steady job where they love his work ethic, is buying a house., and is married to a wonderful woman. The other (salutatorian) got a partial scholarship and graduated Summa Cum Laude from Grand Canyon University in their music department. He writes and publishes new music in a weekly basis. He, along with his sister-in-law’s brother share the house his brother is purchasing. They have carved out a good lifestyle after growing up in the depredations of the People’s Republic of California.

Yup, I have several family members who are teachers in the public schools and they all say many of the kids are from broken families. Kids with families that care and have the means either home school or send their kids to a private school, that's pretty much the norm here in MA which is saying something since MA is rated number one for public schooling. Unfortunately, if you don't have the means to homeschool or afford private school you have to deal with the public schools since MA doesn't allow for school choice to be used for any schools outside of the public schools.

Thing is - what 'burns out' teachers isn't long hours or hard work - what burns out teachers is when they are forced to teach kids who don't want to be there, who hate the subject they are studying, and who are just going through the motion to try and get through whatever it is they are doing faster. The teacher then starts behaving the same, and this feeds students who might be engaged - hence snowballing the effect.

Success is not a good school. As a former student, my last principal had us walking up and down stairs as a punishment for kids being too loud. She did this multiple times throughout the year. The longest we have recorded this was 1hr and 30 minutes. 90 minutes of walking 896 steps. That was 32 floors worth of steps. That is not even counting us walking through the hallway. The education is good, but the teachers are assholes. Their mistreatment led many students and myself to feel suicidal. Also depending on the region of success, they may get higher treatment just for being in midtown. The teachers were on a revolving door, we never had a teacher longer than 6 months in my last year. 2 times I’ve had teachers quit after 3 days in the school. This fake image that their promoting is terrible, because the force kids to stay after school for amounts up to 5 hours after the regular school day ends. One assistant principal once said “I’ve never seen a white kid reject tutoring before, let alone a black kid”. That is ridiculous and blatant racism. When you make videos about success, maybe look into both sides. Other schools (elementary) have been found with lists of students that “got to go” and were actively trying to get them out by pestering the student and their parents. I tried suicide multiple times last year and the beginning of this year because of their terrible mistreatment this is not ok. My teachers constantly got their own teaching content wrong. Last year I had to correct 2 teachers in the same subject 13 times in January alone. They were asking my sister to work at their schools when she hadn’t even graduated college yet. Their teachers are unqualified and unprofessional. Yes, some experiences are good, my elementary was wonderful and fun with a loving principal, but not all. Don’t show it as some magic school, there are still very large issues with it.

@@Christine-hl4rl But this falsely inflating of results through the lowering of standards is already happening regardless, and not even on a small scale either. But even if they do this, the ultimate result of that speaks for itself, doesn't it? So what harm will privatisation do in order to bring competition and innovation back into the education system? Schools which produce genuinely good results, with a good reputation are an inevitability in a system like that and it's something you can't create through government intervention.

" think critically" you can talk when you dont spew rhetoric literally coined by the father of public eduication if public education isnt for " critical thinkingh" why did the man who coined the term create it. you dont know what the words mean youi just say them then conflate them too any assumption you make and pretend its intelligent behavior cause you call it " critical thinking" like john dewey the man who coined the term and started the school system you just criticized and btw its went down since dewey bud. before you try and deflect your buzzword nonsense.

@@bastait what's funnier than George Carlin is your perception of the world around you. Thank you for your reply. You've not only shown your pitiful grammatical acumen but also your inability to form a coherent argument. Critical thinking is defined as a person's ability to actively assess their situation and choose their course of action based upon the compendium of any information made available from experience, observation, or reasoning; rather than making a reactionary decision based upon emotion or authoritative directives. Please sit down.

My daughter is a public school elementary teacher. She went to public and Catholic school as a child. The number one issue currently in public schools is lack of meaningful discipline. They have very little recourse if a child is misbehaving and this disrupts learning for others. Success Academy has an advantage that kids want to be there and act accordingly. Not to say that's a bad thing.

Shutting down successful schools is really telling to how envious those in the public sector get when the private sector outperforms them, they just gotta shut it down because they are the ones who have the cohesive power of the state backing them. All they need is the right progressive candidate to get in and unfairly limit the opportunity for millions of children to learn essential skills. This is why I support the free market, we need more competition in schooling, not less

@jeremykraenzlein5975 6 ай бұрын

I thought that part of the point of the lottery was to not discriminate on family type. My understanding was that the father-present stats for these kids was similar to the surrounding community. That's part of why the academy stands out: they don't accept father absence as an excuse. Yes, fathers do make a huge difference, and it is far more difficult to educate a child without one, but Success Academy just treats that as one more challenge to overcome.

When I was a kid in the 80's I got to take some extra curricular courses at a charter school. They were AWESOME! But, so was the govt. run school AT THE TIME. Today, public education has become SO BLOATED and MISDIRECTED that it is just another 'black hole' of spending and waste. Charter schools perform HIGHER, and their cost (spending) is LOWER. And students actually ENJOY learning. The Charter schools are making public schools look bad. If public schools look bad they lose enrollment, which means they lose funding, which means they can no longer be used to justify and waste HUGE budgets, to perpetuate the myth that big government is required for success.
