School System Failing And Is No Longer There to Educate, Says Teacher

The goal of the education system today is no longer to educate but to do everything but that

• Dan Fisher teaches 10th grade at a high school in Florida
• COVID-19 revealed the rotting condition of America's schools
• Graduation rates are fake
• Schools pass students with little regard to whether they meet standards
• Kids have plenty of energy to invest in their tech
• In this environment, it's no wonder that most parents are looking for new schools

Peeved Parents

• 54% of parents have considered a new school in the past year
• African American, Hispanic, and Millennial parents are most likely to consider changing schools
• Caucasian Americans are least likely to do so
• Most often cited options are nearby traditional public schools, public charter schools, faith-based schools, homeschooling, and online schooling

This is Never Normal

• For the past few years, parents have churned between schools
• With COVID-19 lockdowns over, this trend has continued
• The most significant future impact from the survey will likely come from non-white parents
• This group continues to make up a larger proportion of parents in general, and their choices will continue to change America's school systems

Falling Apart

• Education's disaster comes from two sources: students feel apathetic and struggle with so many discipline issues that teachers can't get them to learn
• School systems also don't cater to teachers' needs
• Most parents don't care about the problems with schools
• Fisher blamed education's current state on national unions that don't help teachers and politicians who want to make learning ideological

Everything Else

• Education impacts children's futures
• Children who attend early childhood education are far more likely to succeed financially later in life
• The demand for good schools also can be a major driver for property prices
• Moving can also have an emotional impact on children
• When kids move, it tends to hurt their mental and emotional functioning

Falling Behind

• The U.S. ranks 32nd in student math skills, 14th in science, and 12th in reading among 41 countries surveyed by the OECD
• 54 percent of American adults lack "literary proficiency," according to Gallup
• If America isn't as educated as the rest of the world, it will fall behind economically
