There's no such thing as a "bad" school : Teachers | Askually "bad" schools are black so calling them bag is segregation

https://old.reddit.com/r/Teachers/comments/1djoyzt/theres_no_such_thing_as_a_bad_school/

As a teacher and a parent, I've noticed this dichotomy a lot. Parents I know talk about how this school is "good," and that school is "bad." One parent I know once said, "there are good schools in our town, you just have to look for them," or, "we're moving so that we can be in a good school district."

But this dichotomy is not related to education -- it's about socioeconomics. The "good" schools are all in wealthier, whiter districts, and the "bad" schools are in lower income, majority-minority districts. So believing in the idea of "good" schools and "bad" schools simply exacerbates segregation, since parents with the means to do so will move to the wealthier school district.

And so what? Why is black children access to whites more important than my children going to a good school

Are there poorly run schools? Sure.

Which would make the school bad.

Are there teachers who should maybe find a different career path? Yes.

Which would make them bad teachers.

But that's not what makes a school "bad."

It literally is you soy overdosing loser.

I've taught in a "bad" school, and it had dedicated teachers and administrators who worked very hard to give their students the best education possible.

And they failed.

I've also taught in a "good" school that has high turnover, burnout, multiple administrators over the course of a few years, etc. The difference is that one has mostly poor kids who don't test well, and the other had a lot of wealthier kids who do test well.

Which makes the latter better. !nooticers I've noticed this is where most teachers fail, they having gone to grade school, to go to high school to go to university to go back to high school have little understanding of the real world. You're not learning much in high school that you'd ever need. It's prep for college where you actually learn what you need to know (plus more unless trash gen eds). Testing well is all that matters.

When people talk about "good" schools and "bad" schools, they're not actually talking about education or even the schools themselves. They're talking about income inequality and de facto segregation.

Kay. I don't my kids going to a bad or black school

As a parent I find this post kinda outrageous and mildly offensiveโ€ฆ To suggest my desire to provide my children with the best I can afford is even remotely racially motivatedโ€ฆ. Seems like you have your own biases to work through.

Liberals more racist than the working class, news at 11.

Right! The school district system is the #1 factor pushing economic and racial segregation. When the revolution comes, bussing will come back.

JFC. I would've never allowed myself to be bussed. I'd've quit school then and there. No good person would ever allow their children to be bused.

!chuds I Actually support busing from a accelerationist point of view. Nothing made me hate blacks like going to school with them

That said, no way would I let my own kids go to the shitty Title 1 school I work at.

Lmfao average commie

Yes. Bay Area has a few. There are a few articles complaining about wypipo moving out of these districts as well, even though the Asians don't give a shit about white flight.
