…the biggest thing I would say is the class sizes are way too big…

Smaller class sizes is the solution to pretty much every educational problem, yet teachers are made to try every new fad instead of actually hiring more teachers and providing higher salaries to quite better talent.

Funding for education is too often called expensive, when increased funding always improves the economy. It’s not a cost, it’s an investment with monetary and social returns.

I dunno, it's a two way street IMO. You make valid points for sure. I just don't see how its going to be positive for us when we have a government that's just so hostile towards any sort of public serving service. All they want is corrupt privatization

They're definitely tired and overworked with unacceptable conditions for them to be effective at their job.

I hope they are able to get a bit of what they want. It's so frustrating to see our country not prioritize education.
