@martymcfly5423 Teacher Unions are part of the problem, but teachers have less and less say compared to administrators. Schools have been top-heavy with administrators for decades. Since "Diversity and Equity" hit, there's been a whole new layer added to the bureaucracy.
Look at the ratio of staff and admin to teachers. It's the highest it's ever been and teachers do all the secretarial and clerical work, themselves, now, because of computers and desktop publishing. When I started out, professors didn't even type their own tests. Now there're more secretaries than ever, but they spend all day shuffling papers and generating useless and meaningless reports for stuffed-shirt administrators who seem to think THEY'RE doing something whenever they dream up some NEW task for teachers to perform, as if teaching weren't already a full-time job.
If you want a good school, find one run by teachers, and with fewer administrators than the competitors. That school will be focused on the learning. Find a top-heavy school, and it will be busy with social justice and a million other things, and the learning will take a back seat. They'll spend most of their time trying to figure out how to get more students to pass without learning anything, because that's "student success." Not success in the real world. Success according to their twisted definition.
