The more you pay the School Superintendents the worse the schools. Yet another example of money down the rat hole Public Schools in Iowa.

"I know, let's pay the teachers and administrators more money. That'll improve things." - Probably a HROT teacher

Sober and Boji definitely belong to that thought process.

On average Iowa Public Schools individually each have a much, much higher operating budget than their private counterparts yet the Iowa Public Schools are nothing but failing institutions.

Sad, truly sad.

So about 30% of all public schools in Iowa are on the ‘needs improvement’ list.

Where do the private schools come in?

That's right, you have no idea.

Go to their websites. They are usually pretty proud to share their results.

No, they are not. They hide results and other measures of their effectiveness.

I dare you to link the results of individual private school test scores and their comparison to their public school counterparts.

Thanks Kim Reynolds

Thanks Kim Reynolds

How so? Do you support the logic of throwing more money into the fire will improve things?

 

[NorthernHawkeye]

Thanks Kim Reynolds

Is it possible for public school teachers to ever take reponsibility for this? Or will they always blame Reynolds?

Iowa potentially has the worst teachers in America

We should blame the teachers for subsidizing religious private schools and their patrons to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars? JFC

So if you live in a poor neighborhood you don't get the same education as rich kids. Gotcha. That's like saying wood comes form trees.

The poor results were present long before vouchers.

It coincides with the reduced funding and lack of support. Vouchers are making it worse and costing taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars.

You're an excuse machine. Cut the crap and grow up.

Funding has always gone up every year.

No.

The problem probably starts with parents, environment and poverty level…teachers would be on the list but not very high, if at all.

LOL - The problem starts inside the classroom and who should be managing the classroom? Not mom and dad.
