Kids that punks are raised by bad parents. Bad parents are created by poor education. It's all correlated.
Yes. Because maybe they have a teacher who can reach them and make them better people and students. All part of higher teacher pay = higher quality teacher. Just like higher police pay = higher quality police officer.so we pump more funds into the education system to support kids that aren't going to make it because they have no one at home supporting them? **** no. I'll just burn my money, at least it will heat the house.
Bad parents aren't created by a dysfunctional education system. This country wasn't built on educated people. There were successful uneducated people before there was an education system. All the academics discovered that rubes would pump tax money into a system that they could feed off of. Pretty simple.Kids that are punks are raised by bad parents.

wrong and wrong. If you go into something because of pay you aren't there for the right reasons.Yes. Because maybe they have a teacher who can reach them and make them better people and students.

Heres an interesting study from a few years back. I tie it to your comment because I think complete families are more likely to insure the kid makes time to read.

Or it could be reversed. I graduated from ETSU 2013 with a degree in CJ. Make 40k a year to deal with meth heads and people that want to kill you all day? Hard pass. Double it and sign me up. Its risk vs reward.wrong and wrong. If you go into something because of pay you aren't there for the right reasons.
so why did you get a degree in CJ? You knew it didn't pay going it so maybe you couldn't do anything else?Or it could be reversed. I graduated from ETSU 2013 with a degree in CJ.

U.S. spending on elementary and high school education declined 3 percent from 2010 to 2014 even as its economy prospered and its student population grew slightly by 1 percent, boiling down to a 4 percent decrease in spending per student. That’s according to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s annual report of education indicators, released last week.
Over this same 2010 to 2014 period, education spending, on average, rose 5 percent per student across the 35 countries in the OECD. In some countries it rose at a much higher rate. For example, between 2008 and 2014, education spending rose 76 percent in Turkey, 36 percent in Israel, 32 percent in the United Kingdom and 27 percent in Portugal. For some countries, it’s been a difficult financial sacrifice as their economies stalled after the 2008 financial crisis. To boost education budgets, other areas were slashed. Meanwhile, U.S. local, state and federal governments chose to cut funding for the schoolhouse.
“Overall (U.S.) education spending has been cut quite severely in the last few years,”said Andreas Schleicher, who heads the OECD directorate that issued the report. “That clearly puts constraints on the environment you have for learning.”
Other countries are slashing funds to boost education. The US is slashing education funding to boost police and military.

teachers in a broken system don't teach, they passI think you should expect to give teachers raises too based on performance not tenure otherwise you'll lose good teachers to other places and the lower paying districts will be stuck with the bad ones. This generally impacts lower income area more. What is not mentioned though is safety in these areas. Teachers or anyone really want to work in crime infested areas. Especially ones that allows kids to disrespect teachers, gang infested and parents ready that hard to partner with.
