ok...so. this waiting for superman movie. im all inspired by it and all. but let me just take a minute here to see if i understand.
so...when the government gives children FREE public education parents dont give a care. they are unaware of how to properly support their schools and teachers. BUT if you now have to pay for it somehow; hence a CHARTER SCHOOL, then your gonna care. i dont get it. you already pay for it, tax dollars people. why not get positively involved with your schools and teachers in the public ed realm?? can i tell you how many of my parents DONT have a clue as to what a great school their kids go to?! we are being nominated for a national blue ribbon award. they dont care. you know what they do know. that they dont want their kid to stay after school and be held responsible for daily work that their child choose not to complete. they know that their child can be held to mediocre educational standards in the household. but hey why not put the responsibility of excellence on my shoulders? sure. no problem. i welcome a good challenge. BUT REALLY? stop cryin' about public education and how parents and children are the victims. you know who the true victims are in this story. teachers. again.
