American school are so expensive because they are so top heavy with staff. One vice principal for every three teachers, counselors, etc.

Public schools are no different than our government, in that there is no accountability. Too many people being hired who are redundant and unnecessarily. Trump has reduced he number of government employees to a level we haven’t see in 50+ years. Bureaucracies are a cancer we need to start treating as such.

And now Colorado Democrats plan to end TABOR refunds for the next ten years so schools get more funding. Despite declining enrollments.

doesn't have to be on the ballot and voted on by us?

I do believe it will be a ballot question in November.

Colorado Schools Making National News In A Bad Way

If you give A's to most students, the excellent ones will stop trying as hard. They will stagnate. Doing the minimum.

And if you keep advancing children to the next grade, they have no reason to learn the material.

Why are our teachers so unhappy?

my guess, just a guess,because I have NO children...the children/teenagers r so unruly and disrespectful of their teacher,the so called learning tools (which r ludicrous) r not sufficient to to meet their REAL LIFE experiences, the parents allow the undisciplined behavior and then expects the teacher to correct the
lack of discipline THEY instilled...I would be seeking another job, if some smug sixteen y,o,OR a bratty 5 year old called me a bitch....I know I would be charged with child abuse, IF i did what I really wanted to,
slap them silly.
