If public schools were able to require a parent to come to the school every time their child misbehaved, the issue would be solved in a week. I’d love a policy where if the child is disrupting, the parent comes and must spend minimum 30 minutes with their child (somewhere private) and regulates their child or takes them home for the day. No punishment, just parental restoration instead of making the school do it.

Schools rarely fail because they lack initiatives. They fail because they lack focus, disciplined execution, and the courage to stop doing things that don’t work.

Stop testing kids into the ground. State tests. Diagnostics. Benchmarks. Progress monitoring. Retests.

If you want to improve reading scores, you have to get students to read.

It is that simple.

All the other systems, methods, and protocols are fluff.

Gotta get students to put down their phones, and pick up books.

Do you know who dislikes the lack of accountability for misbehaved students in schools even more than teachers?

The good kids who actually want to learn.

They’re often the ones being silently bullied, distracted, intimidated, or forced to sit in chaos every day while administrators let it continue.

When a severely misbehaved student is suspended, it’s often a relief for the students trying to do the right thing, too.

It seems the only people who want students on Chromebooks all day are BigEd Tech companies and the districts who get kickbacks…

We need to get back to textbooks and written assignments.

More screens are not the answer. In fact, they’re a large part of the problem.

[Jen @jenteach13]

Nobody talks about what it costs a school when a good teacher walks out the door for good. The kids lose the relationship. The department loses the institutional knowledge. The next hire starts from zero. And everyone pretends that's just how it goes.

Staff the building.

Hard truth:

Schools cannot fully overcome poor parenting.

Teachers are burning out trying to do the jobs of educator, counselor, disciplinarian, and parent all at once.

At some point, accountability has to return to the home.

[Kevin McLeod @bannon1975]

The goal of children's reading shouldn't be to produce children who can pass a reading test. It should be to produce adults who still read at 35 because they love it. Those require completely different approaches and we're only using one of them.

@FixingEducation Screens. Gentle parenting. Policies that incentivize schools for sending disruptive kids back to class.
