Someone Tell My WHY!!!

You need a better union!

LOL!!!!!!!!!!

No you dont need a union, you need nonsense policies like no child left behind. Georgia is going forward with a plan to eventually do away with special education needs, and mainline all students, this is not going to end favorably. We will lower the educational standards to the lowest denominator. Who thinks this stuff up?

The educational system has been screwed up for so many years. My precious one got caught in a reverse educational trap; she was bored in every school and constantly complaining. She was making all A's but there was no challenge for her and no place for her because she "aced" everything offered. We had her tested and her IQ was extremely high so we moved her to a school for gifted children which is an Academy of Math and Sciences. This year she won the science competition, went on to MSU for the state competition and took second place there. Imagine a 12 year-old demonstrating and explaining the chemical changes that occur in terrestial plants grown in a mineral nutrient reservoir vs hydroponics. I hate to think how many children there are, just like her, who have no one to be an advocate for them. It's easier, and cheaper, just to dumb the children down to the schools lowest level. What benefit will the unions be to children who are denied adequate education today but don't qualify for the job when they are adults tomorrow?
