I wonder how many children is struggling schools in the US have problems like this?
I wonder how many struggling teachers have textbooks that aren't up to the task of educating our children?
Why aren't textbooks results oriented?
I've known quite a few that question the 'learning' that fills the school day. The growing gap between test scores, real life preparedness, and the technology society is widening, my opinion.
Is it always teachers? Why doesn't Obama address parents and home life in all his speeches?
Maybe we need to RESET eduction in this country from the bottom up! Start with the textbooks and find books that really challenge students and teachers.

Lots of quality choices for home schoolers, why not for local districts? Local parents?
Why family challenges do failing students in the US face?

Scandal of social deprivation in schools
Published on 5 Sep 2010
There is an important lesson to be learned in the figures revealed yesterday by Glasgow City Council’s report on the level of deprivation in some of their schools.
The scale and depth of the problem in one of the primaries is profoundly shocking: of the 24 pupils in one class, only three had not experienced at least one of a range of serious problems including family drug abuse, communication difficulties and assault by a relative.
We know – because teachers have been telling us about it for a long time – what happens when these issues lurk in a classroom: the children become insecure and hard to teach and disruption becomes the order of the day. In such an environment, it is hard – if not impossible – for the children to learn anything at all.

We have a nation in which government seems to want to legalize all kinds of recreational drugs. Obamacare seems to provide endless treatment at taxpayer expense.
We seem to have an endless cycle of poverty, drug abuse, and hopelessness in this nation, all financed by taxpayers.
What will it take to turn this ship around?
Why work when government pays you to stay home, abuse drugs, and neglect your children? Any chance you'll lose your children and welfare check?
Children locked in an endless cycle of foster homes and hopelessness.
What happened to Mr. Obama's wasted children?
Does more money always help? Or, does more money help to waste away the lives of future generations?
What about the moral deprivation in Washington?
