Scumbria Re..Society gets what it pays for, and our schools suck in this country. In Japan, teaching is considered one of the highest professions. In the US, we treat teachers as babysitters.<<<<< I think we need to consider that many professions in this country are dissed. The teachers are far better off than the farmers, and I would consider food more important than education as I consider starvation a higher priority; a higher priority than even gas. The teachers in our area are well pd; not by lawyer standards, but compared to the rest of us who have to pay their wages out of our pockets. Secondly, I don't think the quality of our teachers is the problem. It is the attitude of the students; primarily why so many seem so disinterested in high school. Instead of blaming the teachers for not teaching, we should be asking why our children don't care if they learn. Blaming the teachers I feel is just an excuse, and throwing more money at schools won't help. We as parents should be looking into the mirror and wondering if we aren't the problem.
