The ever-lovin’ Ogre drops a crude hammer on worries that North Carolina can’t get and keep enough public school teachers:
If you cannot attract employees with cash, try another option — give the damn teachers some authority. Change their working conditions so THEY are in charge of the classroom, not the children.
Allow teachers to dictate what will happen in the classroom. Allow teachers to throw children out of the classroom when they are disruptive. Don’t send convicted felonious sex offenders into the classrooms with the teachers. Allow teachers to arm themselves against the gangs and violence. EXPEL students who are involved in felonious assaults and gang wars on school grounds.
But then, you’d have to get rid of students who won’t learn — and that would reduce the federal funding — so that’s not going to happen, either.
Talk to any CMS high school teacher and see if they think the Ogre is wrong.
