Parents in Tenn. forced to sign agreements saying they won't listen in to what their kids are being taught in virtual classes.

This site is going to hell. Remember when this website was about shooting? Like Frank puts at the bottom of each page :
Sniper’s Hide is a community of Snipers of all kinds, focusing on long range shooting, accuracy, and ballistics.

A nice way to get away from the constant bullcrap of our politicians. Then guys like the OP (likely a bot) who join a month ago, has nearly 200 posts with all this political cut and paste articles. Now you're posting about school board releases and yelling about Communists? On a shooting website? Gimme a break. Wanna go post some right wing stuff? Go to Foxnews. Wanna post some left wing stuff? Go to Huffington Post.

I hope Frank and the mods do something about this. This site is slowly transforming from the top ranked shooting site to about the 3,540th ranked political website.
There’s the door, dont let it hit you in the ass on the way out.
 
If there is one thing in this country that needs to defunded/burned to the ground it's the department of education.

That's not necessarily a bad idea (in fact it's quite good), but these sort of problems are not created on a national level and thus are not fixed by voting the correct people into Congress and the White House. They are largely local problems, with some substantial influence at the state level. The problems get fixed at the local level - not by putting "Trump 2020” signs in the front yard and wearing a MAGA hat, but rather by doing the difficult work of figuring out what's happening in the classroom, and then applying pressure in the correct location (which is usually the school board).

My wife and I know what's going on at our sons' school because we are regularly in the classroom and because my wife designed a chunk of the curriculum (K-5 science). While not everyone can dedicate that sort of time, they could at least show up to the school board meetings on occasion. I do know from observation that the ratio of people bitching to people actually showing up to offer constructive criticism is, shall we say, somewhat large.
 
They're pissed, because now we will be able to critique their technique, when they teach a subject like.. New Math, or whatever it's called now, we can, in plain view, tell the teacher they're wrong and point out to the others the proper way we write out an equation, to arrive at the correct answer. Mac

Is this the "new math" that Rush Limbaugh ranted about during the early Obama years, or the math that's actually taught in the classroom? Because I've seen the latter coming home with my sons, and I gotta say that it's pretty good. Many of the techniques being taught are how I've done things in my head for the last 30+ years. The Next Generation Sciences Standards (NGSS) are also vastly better than the standards used to teach when I was in school.

If there are problems in the classroom, it's due to issues at the local level, and apparently people just don't want to do the hard work in their own backyards and would rather rant about this-and-that at the national level.
 
Id make sure to video tape every lesson and reviewed . your paying for there education and you own there buts till they are 18 or older while they live in your house . you created that life its yours lol enjoy ownership get involved its more deadly than any bomb or firearm , its going to be a teenager soon enough god help you .

This was shit my youngest brought home with him in '85, he was 8 y.o. Sat down with him, because, he was having problems, started to write out a division problem, used multiplication, addition, subtraction, as I had learned it, he then told me that the teacher didn't care if they got the correct answer, or not (huh?), but, was more concerned about how it was written in an equation and I was doing it wrong. I was lost after that. Up until then, I thought math was math. I had the basics and used them my entire life. That was the first time, in my life, I heard anything about "New Math". So, I guess I didn't know as much as I thought I knew, according to the teacher, anyways. Mac
 
the common core experiment on our kids has been a proven failure.
no surprise that scum fucking shit bill gates was one of the biggest pushers.
but obama got millions from the company that was awarded contracts for the shit core books, and that is OK, right libtards?

is it any surprise that public school libtard brainwashers don't want you listening in to their programming bullshit?
and there is a member of this hide that has a problem with exposing this?
fuck you, asshole. nobody forced you to click on this.

btw
Obama spent $7 Billion to find that no amount of money will fix public schools that are chronically failing.
And yet, democrats will continue to blame funding for public school performance!
Why?
Each child's future the democrats can destroy is a potential vote for them.
that is why they fight school choice.
that is why they want to close down charters or take control of them.
fuck democrats.

 
PS: bet you never heard of this program, the results, or the impact on democrat funding demands.
because the news was buried during RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA! TRUMP IS AN AGENT OF PUTIN!!!!

The Bear Pit and ARF GD are the only places I go to for my daily news and real time current events/advisories feeds... Same for many others out there. Breaking events, such as the horrific murder of 5 year old Cannon Hinnant and advisories like the radar spottings ahead of the destructive midwest "derecho" storms of the past few weeks, have been posted here on average about 3 hours EARLIER than even the most reliable, non-woke mainstream media outlets...

KEEP THE BEAR PIT GREAT. That's all. I don't have anything else to say but that...
