Under new “conservative” extremists policies, Florida went from needing 2500 teaching positions filled to over 7000 unfilled positions in two years.
Those treachery weren’t going to SC for new jobs. Every place in the country where these MAGA nutters have taken control, it’s been an utter failure to even get what used to be routine, everyday functions of government done.
Heck, just look at the disaster that MAGA politicians have been in the Congress and Senate. MAGA fools are about to let the government get shut down (so they could make complete fools of themselves trying to impeach Biden. God, what a failure today was for tgem) and hurting our military in the Senate. Total failures.
So expect the same from the MAGA goons in SC.
Well done Bob. Thanks for a whole lotta nothing. I hope you know how to swim because that is a big ocean of worthless nonfactual feelings you are drowning in…..
Thanks, Beta Bob (glad to see you know your place in our exchange here)
Here’s the first thing to pop up when doing a simple Google search (I know its hard. I’m here to help..)
“ The teacher shortage crisis is the biggest issue facing schools across the state, according to the Florida Education Association. School districts in Northeast Florida lost 1,134 teachers at the end of the last school year. That makes up about 16 percent of the vacancies across the state – totaling 7,000.”
You were saying something about “nonfactual feelings” or something, Beta?
Poor thing.
You don’t know that Republicans are going to allow the government to shutdown in two days?
You don’t know Republican Senators are holding up military promotion (a normally routine function of the government)?
You don’t know Florida is facing a teacher staffing crisis?
Those are all facts. I’d be glad to be proven wrong…
Florida’s teacher vacancy rate is about 4.2%….the national average is 4%….so they’re neither exemplary nor laggard – they’re average.. California’s vacancy rate is about 6.2%. Closer scrutiny reveals that the “crisis” in Florida is the same in all states – its bad in certain districts and not in others. The one thing Florida does really need to fix is teacher pay – they rank 48% in the country – that one thing probably would fix most of this problem. But despite all this, real people, just trying to live their lives, keep ditching the liberal/marxist hellhole states and coming to FL, TX, SC, TN in droves. You hacks can strut and crow all you want about “MAGA nutters”, but the people in the real world know where things are bad, and where they are good – the migration says it all.
Yes, in the real world….let’s see what a majority of parents think about MAGA nutters banning books…
“ As the right-wing book-banning movement justifies its crusade against U.S. libraries and classrooms with claims of “parental rights,” survey data released Wednesday shows that 74% of parents agree or somewhat agree that book bans for public libraries infringe on their right to make decisions for their children.”
Have fun with all those new MAGA nutters!
Looks like in the real world, the majority of average normal parents don’t agree with these right-wing extremists banning books from libraries. Mom’s for White Nationalism time will be short.
“ As the right-wing book-banning movement justifies its crusade against U.S. libraries and classrooms with claims of “parental rights,” survey data released Wednesday shows that 74% of parents agree or somewhat agree that book bans for public libraries infringe on their right to make decisions for their children.“
So, according to these religious extremists trying to force their views on everyone and their crusade to get “vulgar and sexually explicit” materials removed from libraries, student would not be allowed to learn about Donald Trump’s life and Presidency?
These people are not smart enough to game out the repercussions of their actions. Which is why they have shown to be incompetent when given positions of leadership. SC schools will be no different than Florida’s unfolding disaster.
M4L in ASD1 either home school their kids or send them across county lines to parochial schools. They have no skin in the game and are only interested in foisting their will on others.
If one wants the state to stop providing PORN to the students, then they must file criminal charges against the State and the Individual Schools. This action of the state is a felony:
