A lot of truth there.Few teachers in Texas belong to a union so that's not the solution and they have little influence in Austin.
Teachers are quitting because the kids are bad, parents don't want to discipline their kids, they don't want the district to discipline their kids, and teachers can't discipline their kids.
In grades that have State testing, the entire curriculum is built around passing that test and nothing more. That test is the only thing that matters to a district.
Plus they get paid peanuts to deal with bad kids all day, so they burn out then quit and they do something else. My wife's school in a good district at a good school had a 60% teacher attrition rate.
My kids are still in public school because I'm not paying 30k per year to send them to private school.
