god damn your fuckin stupid. You don't want teachers to take time off to learn new things to teach We need to remove your ability to vote.

Ok, before you tell someone "your fuckin stupid," let's go back to English class. The word you are looking for is "you're." It's a contraction. It's the combination of two words... YOU AND FUCKING ARE. SOUND IT OUT IN THAT FUCKING MELON YOU CALL A HEAD. "Your" implies ownership, you fucking moron. You don't need to be calling anyone stupid.

Jesus christ, why are the people who listen to Limbaugh and his war on education so fucking stupid, or did I just answer my own question?

Also, one thing I think about how useless the so call the final exam are. All they are designed to do is to strain the student at the end of the school year. In work environment, people are allow to look up information whenever they want, so why can't student? Then I guess why some professor support an open book exam policy.

yeah try to find the perfect balance. its hard.

we have been thinking of putting it off until after dinner. but not sure thats great either. i have read reports that say its better for the child to do right after school since its still fresh. If you put it off until after dinner they have a harder time recalling what they were asked to do.

But also the kids need time to run around and act like little kids. Now that winter is comeing and its dark at 7pm i think we will let her play outside until dinner (5pm) then do homework and then she can play inside.

that gives her 2 hours of playing outside on weeknights.

hell if any other parents in the same boat got any ideas let me know.

finals aren't that bad. what i do have issues with is Teh state exams. the ones that take like a week to do. Since they are tieing teachers pay, schools pay etc ot them to many are just trying to teach the test.

My wife worked as a teacher in the 3-5th grade. she got frustratred that she was to teach the kids what was on teh text and how to do the test for a good part of the school year.

while she loved being around the kids and teaching them the admistration drove her nuts (also the pay sucked heh)

Even in the US, you see very high achivers in racial group like Asain and Jewish people, those group often with parents and family who cares about and actively involves in their's kids edcuation.

People in this country, especially parents with kids in school need to stop pointing fingers and start to face up to their own responsibilities. Or else nothing is gonna work to improve the crap education result in this country.

This!
Parents are no longer giving children the attention and encouragement required to excel in school or in anything else for that matter. Parents are spending less and less time with their kids. This will always have a negative effect on their growth in so many ways.

Yes, just think of how many fruits and vegetables kids put condoms on with all of that extra time.

Do you ever have anything relevant to say or do you just troll around the threads speaking like an idiot?

Kids would do better with less school and getting out earlier. Listening to Obama and the other pod people in education you would think kids are being born dumber the last 25 years. They are being dumbed down, miseducated and drugged up is the problem. This is Obama being his weirdo neo-Marxist self. I could guess what kind of re-education he would engage in with the extra time.

You forgot something about homosexuals, Butterbean.

Really? Is he Butterbean? Or are you just equating him to Butterbean?
Either way .... that's interesting and I can kind of see the parallels now.

In my school district they would fudge the numbers by sending all the druggies and lazy kids to a different school. School in this country is just a glorified day care.

Edit: oh a problem with longer school days is that normall the kids go to school for 6hrs, and that gives the teachers 2 hrs a day for prep time and grading papers. Now the teachers have longer days to and we cant pay them anymore.
