Should No Child Left Behind Act be reauthorized?
Let me think... um.... NO!!!
Talk to some teachers and see if they don't tell you that the kids they teach are any better off. They can't teach anything of use in their lives because they have to teach shit for the standardized tests.
But, who is to really blame if kids don't learn?
Is it the teachers? Well, sometimes. I had some teachers growing up that spoke ebonics and couldn't speak understandable English. I had some teachers that their grammar was worse than mine... AND THEY WERE MY TEACHERS! I had some teachers that didn't know their subjects very well. I had some that knew the subjects but simply had no talent for teaching. I think teacher testing and interviews should weed out most of that.
Is it the parents? Well, if you wonder why children can't speak properly, it is usually the parents. If the kids can't think for themselves, it is usually the parents. Lazy parents just keep the kid alive until they go to school and then expect the school to do the rest and don't follow through with homework or anything at home. So, it's partially the parents.
Is it the kids? I would say a good part of the problem is the kids. Did the people who came up with this law even take into consideration that maybe, just maybe, that some kids just don't give a shit? I mean, when I was a kid I didn't give a shit. I really didn't. I hated school. All I wanted to achieve was to get to the next grade, no matter how close of a call it was. So, do you think any amount of testing would make me do better in school? Fuck no! It made me hate school worse. It was bad enough when I was in grade school in the 80's. I can't imagine it now. Those poor kids. They aren't being taught anything but the standardized tests, then they have to take the tests which turns them off even more, then people expect them to be well educated and have the ability to think? What the fuck are those lawmakers thinking? They haven't been in grade school since the fucking 60's and they think they can know how to make school laws without even studying what parents and children think!
Repeal the NCLB Act and stop all that unnecessary standardized testing and let the fucking teachers do their jobs! We're raising a generation of kids that don't know how to think!
