I'm sure you were teacher of the year. I'll bet you were the principal's favorite teacher.
Personal finance..did you say just be an idiot and let the government pay for it? Yikes. That generation of kids probably isn't doing very well through this situation.
You probably led the anarchist movement in the lunch room. I'll bet you had all the problems figured out. You would have won state if coach would have put you in at quarterback in '89... how old are you?
Can you throw a pigskin over a mountain?
Actually if they followed my teachings they would survive at least 6 months because they would have had an emergency fund. And if bad fortune had come their way, they could at least use their credit card because they would have had it paid it off with a zero balance. And they wouldn’t need to worry about car payments because they wouldn’t have had one of those nor a student loan either.
You see my man, I have had ladies tell me in the store that their kids I had 20 years ago have never been in debt thanks to me.
Another kid in his 30s told me he started buying rental property right out of HS after taking my class and he now has close to 20 properties.
Maybe if you say one of your prayers you could have an impact like that and change lives.
I taught personal finance too. My favorite class to teach. Dave Ramsey all the way.
So, it sounds like we taught the same thing.
too bad you think it's the government's problem to take care of irresponsible people by stealing from honest and responsible taxpayers.

And with that you prove incapable of understanding my point..
He is capable, but he thrives on redirecting and ignoring anything that doesn't fit his narrative...even though he has spent so much time reading and studying.
Doesn't work for him. He wants to pee in your cheerios because he is smarter than everyone.
You teach personal finance...approximately 85% of Americans are in debt.
I'm sure you've done a bang up job...
In this case...you can lead a horse to water.... and they didn't start requiring personal finance education in Missouri until 2005... a lot of people got out of school without it.
And--I know I've had students go out and immediately buy a car, go to school for a major that won't pay back, and do all kinds of other dumb things. It's a problem.
I mean, why would anyone smoke these days? Same thing with being financially dumb...some people just want to do what they want to do to be different. (or fit in the majority)
End of the day personal finance, and all education, starts at home.
Correct. And when the family structure has been all but dissolved, it's a challenge. You build students up all day, and then it's broke down 5 minutes after they get home.
WHOA NELLY..... Another stereotypical that statement shows your ignorance. I worked in a Top 10% DESE school, and most of the schools in my area are good public high schools and have the test scores to back it up, so don't lump them all together. The majority of MO public schools do a good job or else they would be on probation or lose their accreditation.
Now if you would say that the STL and KC city school districts have a lot of problems, then I couldn't argue. But it really ticks me off when I hear someone say something about our country's "failing" public school system. It's not an "educational" problem, it's a "societal" problem. Some of the STL city schools have attendance rates in the 50%-70% range. You can't teach them if 1/3 to 1/2 of them aren't there on any given day. That's not the teachers' fault. It starts at home.
But you don't know what you are talking about if you think the typical teacher is just a gov babysitter.
And don't forget trumpy cut the education dept budget and put a woman in charge that has never worked in education. Guess it's not a money making business so screw 'em.
Public education is garbage (by and large) I know where you're from, and yeah it's a pretty solid school, but MICDS it ain't.
Stereotypes are never accurate and you don't know what you're talking about on education. And I'm not arguing with you since you think you are an expert on every topic.
Former public school educator. Trump funding or not funding had zero impact on our instruction.
Bureaucrats from Jeff city did with more things to try to quantify, hold over the heads of schools audits, end of course exams, and now....
Schools aren’t doing graded assignments (so students aren’t doing them) because they can’t properly accommodate those with iep and 504. “No child gets ahead”. Exempt the iep and move on. It’s not great, but better than all sitting there twiddling thumbs.
My Evals were always a dog and pony show, check a box and file something away that no one looked at.
Thankfully I wasn’t english or math, as they are the hardest jobs in regards to pressure to make their kids score well on tests.
Not to mention we treat students based on how long they’ve been out of the way womb. Socialized education based on the industrial revolution is a bad model.
We have just lowered the bar. Made it easier to graduate because we can’t be having non-graduates. The students know that too and so now we have to drag them and beg them to graduate.
It is a shill game. I feel for teachers that want to do it right. They do well and despite the model they work in.
Not to mention the toxic climate that blames the school and teacher before holding students and parents accountable.
What used to be an education center is now the counseling center, daycare, food pantry, clothes closet.
Learned dependency. A large percentage of students I saw on Ieps just needed held accountable at home.

Kaskaskia, I think the one who is the expert is duck/pigg/stable/Moscow/lazer
Sure a lot of what you say is true, but the motivated students are getting a good education. Like anything else, you get out of it what you put into it. I have heard too many former students who were thankful that they were well prepared for college.
The really good students didn’t need a teacher. But yes, there are success stories or no one would teach.
They need to be challenged academically too. Teachers have the benefit of life experiences to provoke the exceptional students to explore new concepts and ideas.
Do exceptional college students not need professors??
I’m not saying teachers don’t have value. I certainly didn’t teach for the money... but the really exceptional students don’t need educated as much as access to resources and inspiration. They didn’t need my pedagogy
I have a student that went to nationals and placed multiple times in business events. I didn’t teach them a thing in regards to the events they did. They just needed access to the software and a place to practice
Well before I take my leave, I find it hilarious that you would go out of your way to tell us all off as Duck Walk and claim you never want to associate with anyone on here ever again and then you create three new handles and drag up an old one so you can take over the board again without "going back on your word". We all know you're a pathetic old troll who has literally wished death on Trump voters.
Just use Duck Walk again, we all know it's you.
Doesn't bother me at all. Enjoy your self. Karma is a you know what, and you deserve everything coming your way.
I've said this before and I think what is happening now is probably as good of an experiment as we could ask for. We now have volunteers going out into the public and exposing themselves to the virus. Over the next 14 to 30 days the data will start to come in on just how easily the virus spreads and if it is something that can be managed for the sake of the economy. Next 30 days will be key in these states where the protests are taking place and my wish is that there is no uptick in cases so we can start to get back to the new normal, whatever that might be.
Those courageous protestors sacrificing for the greater good of humanity. Gotta love em.
