1000% agree move some of those A/B Principals to the lo performing schools instead of only moving them when they sleep with teachers or the parents run them out…just saying

A guv’mint check.

Any other questions I can answer for you, Tony?

As long as my taxes are paying your salary, you’ll just have to grow a pair.
After all, you just commented, “There is blame to go around…”
I was educated on probably 1/10th the money thrown at Leon County skrewels. And I graduated in the top 1/2% of my senior class of over 600.
(Not in Leon County, of course.)

And I even learned two foreign languages.

Neither of which was Ebonic.

Poverty doesn’t follow successful people as a norm. Selfishness, arrogant pride, ignorance, laziness and drama do typically surround impoverished people. Owning up (confessing) these ills is a great starting point for those who should be leading – but not to be worn as a garland of shame, but as a reminder that a better life can be had by both the parents and the children. Parents may have to put off some behaviors and adopt healthier ones, students may need boundaries and accountability to expectations, and schools may need staff that understand the uphill climb.

Overall, a drastic change in culture is often needed. Success starts at home, where values (or the lack thereof) are instilled. As a teacher, sometimes we’re faced with creating a dichotomy for our students (when you’re here at school, these are the expectations), and this scenario does not play well with a unified, “team” mindset among parents, students and faculty. However, it is a strategy that is sometimes necessary to employ to help our students grow academically and mature mentally. We sometimes have to highlight the fact that “yeah, life sucks right now, but if you learn what you need to know, you can have chance to make a difference for yourself – and others”. This development of perseverance and resilience is vital to success.

These are just some thoughts on the matter. There isn’t a perfect system, but there are definitely options, strategies, and simply truths that should be examined and used as tools for moving forward.

Good to know that “TRUTH” is also Racist to you Leftist Democrats. Is there anything you people DON’T consider Racist?

Isn’t misappropriation of federal funding a violation of the law? If true, would Rocky Hanna face prosecution? I’m sure the Fake Newsocrat’s investigative team will get right on it, lol!
And Cogent’s comment below is spot on. Terrible parents are the biggest part of the problem. Money is the smallest part. It’s not my job as a taxpayer to raise your kids!
