Oregon leading the way

Apparently the dumbing down of students will now continue unabated in Oregon as thousands of teachers and substitute teachers are not going back to work which has caused a teacher shortage. Unqualified (bachelor degree now not being required) persons will be taking over and put into place to teach. I feel sorry for the people who reside in Oregon who have suffered so much there with the rioting, BLM, Antifa and their Democratic governor. Listen to this milquetoast answer questions (he doesn't - he just flaps his gums while saying nothing of substance). View it here --https://fb.watch/8MhAAA_xpT/

If only there was a market-based solution to increase the supply of teachers.

Yeah, we had all those BLM riots, forty trillion dollars' worth of damage, 36 million people were killed, and there's now a giant radioactive crater where downtown Portland used to be.

Then there's Antifa, an organization that despite having very few members, has the overwhelming power to make conservatives crap their pants, causing a mighty stench indeed.

But let me fix just one minor David Miller booboo--the governor of Oregon is a woman. In my third-grade classes, I teach the kiddos that the way to refer to a female person is with the pronouns "she" and "her." David could benefit from sitting in for my classes.

Well, there is! I was retired. They contacted me and persuaded me to jump back in. I now teach live Zoom classes two days a week, and I just started my liaisons with parents who wish to continue to home-school their kids--they have to submit detailed lesson plans. That's a requirement in Oregon--we're not like Texas, where plunking the kids down in front of the TV to watch Tucker Carlson is considered enough to home school them.

How did they persuade me? Good old market-based solution. I'm reinstated at full pay AND still eligible to collect my pension--I just have to defer doing that until I re-retire. Sweet deal! Net, I'm working about thirty hours a week, as the lesson plan stuff is actually more time-consuming. But that part, I do mostly in the evening--Zoom meetings with parents and such. (We really have a lot of home-schoolers now.)

I'm glad I don't live in a red state; since they love the uneducated there, there's no teacher shortage. They just don't bother to educate their kids at all.

Your "fix" is asinine. I had no need to designate whether the governor was male or female - I said "their governor". I agree, there is nothing that I could "benefit" sitting in one of your classes. I see you had no comment about the topic- the dumbing down of Oregon students - you just posted your typical stupidity and felt the need to attack me for something you incorrectly comprehended. 

Oh, and by the way, it's actually Florida that is "leading the way" in teacher shortages. It's a nationwide problem, but the red states are getting hit the hardest. Because those are Covid states, a greater proportion of teachers there have left the profession.

Oregon's measures are drastic, but they're temporary (ending March 31), and doubtless better than having no teachers at all in classrooms.

   That's right, change the focus of the topic. My original post was about Oregon, not any other state. Apparently the teachers in Oregon are leaving because of my aforementioned reasons - while Kevin wants to shift the blame/reasons on covid. Typical. When March 31 rolls around,  we will see just how "temporary" the measure really is. Meanwhile, Oregon will have another 5+ months to brainwash what few students that actually show up for school.

Then you referred to the governor as "he." You don't even watch the shit you post.

What you refer to as "the topic" doesn't exist. Oregon students aren't being "dumbed down." But please, don't try to convince us you give a crap one way or the other. You're just trying to dredge up an excuse to bleat about liberals. Who stimulated you to bleat this time? Mother Tucker, or someone else? Because you sure as hell didn't come up with this outrage attack on your own.

My only comment on this is: the teacher shortage is nationwide. Oregon isn't unique. It's an emergency (big word, I know; sorry), and even an unqualified substitute is better than an unattended classroom. In your home cesspool of Tayucksass, districts are telling parents to take their children back home and plunk them down in front of Fox "News," where they'll receive all the education they'll need.

It's sure as shit the only place you get your education.

Your "aforementioned reasons" are bullshit. According to you? What shred of validity does that have? Your uninformed, conservitard jackass opinion?

That's rich. Now go back to watching your Fox News propaganda.

And yes, the substitute measure is "temporaty." So you doubt that. So what. You don't count.

Your comprehension is flawed, and now that you have been called out for it, you say I "inferred". I "inferred" nothing, I said "their" governor.  Nationwide or not - my posting was about Oregon. Losing qualified teachers and replacing them with lessor, unqualified teachers will most assuredly "dumb down" students for whatever these unqualified "teachers' attempt to teach. In any job, when you replace qualified workers with lessor qualified workers, the product (in this case students) will be inferior. Show where you got your information concerning "districts are telling parents to take their children back home and plunk them down in front of Fox news". Another lie that you can not back up.
