Longer School Days and Years

I write this as a prelude to the "safe school" czar post. No' Bama says our kids our failing because they don't spend enough time in school.

"Kids in the U.S. spend more hours in school (1,146 instructional hours per year) than do kids in the Asian countries that persistently outscore the U.S. on math and science tests — Singapore (903), Taiwan (1,050), Japan (1,005) and Hong Kong (1,013). That is despite the fact that Taiwan, Japan and Hong Kong have longer school years (190 to 201 days) than does the U.S. (180 days)." _Yahoo.Com

I don't have a problem going to an all year school schedule but you still have to give the kids time off. Maybe two weeks off for each season. I don't know just a thought. What I really think is that No' Bama wants more time in the class room, so they can learn more pro No' Bama songs!!! Yes We Can!!! Hmm, Hmm, Hmm!!!

What we need to do is get the unions out of schools and let them teach! Today, a kid can tell a teacher to F Off and nothing happens to the little punk. If I did that my ass would have been paddle at school, by my mother, and again when my father came home. That's the problem, we have became a pacifist society. There isn't any consequences if they do some thing wrong. School systems pop up every day in the news saying that they will no longer issue failing grades. We can not say "Thank you God" but we can waste all kinds of time learning to praise the messiah no' bama.

On any given day NY City has 700 teachers sitting in a room doing nothing. Thank you unions. More to follow, I gotta go...
