Schools districts whine about a lack of funding. Who's at fault? Who will be held accountable?

Continually failing school levies play a roll in this, of course... but who wants to waste even more billions on an obviously failing statewide public school debacle?

We dump billions in... but what are we getting for ROI?

When they crammed the McLeary budget down our throats that caused our property taxes to explode, wasn't school funding supposed to be "fixed?" Who knew that the McLeary rip off was an obvious scam?

Massive increases in money without requiring any increased academic performance FOR that money... and getting worsening academics every year since.

Billions wasted.

Further, the reduction in anticipated, utterly unrealistic student attendance projections as more and more parents discover how totally, completely worthless most public schools in this state actually are and either home school their kids or private school them, combined with the costs of horrifically overpaid teachers who punch out semi-literate cretins like movie tickets, might have something to do with it.

If only the unconscionably bad schools of this state, now in many respects overtaken by Mississippi public schools in academics for only a paltry $6000 per student LESS than students that WE pay to have taught... would actually begin teacher accountability.

Our schools are terrible. The OSPI report card is a nightmare, by most schools, most districts and the entirety of this state.

And it isn't funding. Other states are doing far better for far less. And the Washington DC district, which has wasted even more money per student than we do, has done far worse.

It isn't parents. Mississippi school children have parents as well. While our teachers typically blame everyone else except themselves for these outcomes, are Mississippi teachers blaming parents for THEIR outcomes?

Funding does NOT equal outcomes. If it did, Washington DC schools, which are an actual crime against children and among the worst in the world, would, at $31,000+ per student per year, be punching out geniuses instead of their pathetic outcomes:

All students - English proficiency: 37.6% Math proficiency: 26.4% Science proficiency: 13.3%

Leftists riot at the drop of a bong.

But they never riot over how piss-poor our schools really are. Government simply doesn't care.

And sadly, it would seem far too few parents care, either.

Washington schools continue to fail us.

I despise public schooling controlled by leftists who are working, deliberately or inadvertently, to destroy our country. 

In the 19-20 school years, Washington state reached a high of 1,103,173 students enrolled.  According to the latest OSPI figures, even though our population has increased from 7,546,400 in 2019 to 8,159,900, that number has dropped significantly to 1,096,285.

So, while the state has gained over 600,000 residents, the number of students over that same time period has decreased instead of increasing to reflect our population growth.

Here, for example, is the statistical summary of Washington State Public Schools, according to the state, leftist controlled Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, before his new grading system to cook the books in an effort to literally slather lipstick on an absolutely unacceptable pig known as the public school system in the state of Washington:

Note the "highlights," or the lowlights, as it were, of this report that the fringe-left OSPI generated, just before the school year started in September of 2022..

48% are at grade level in English.

30% in math. 46% in science.

17% drop-out rate

16 student average classroom size.

20% don't bother to show up at all.

Now, after OSPI changed the reporting criteria to make school academic outcomes LOOK better, here are the results OSPI wants us to believe:

3 school years later, the number of children showing up for class has collapsed, from a despicable 80% to a horrific 73%.

That means that we have a typical rate of 27% of children in this state blowing off school.

How is it possible for 27% of kids to skip school, but still have an 83% graduation rate?

And yet, somehow, even though the number of kids actually bothering to show up for school has almost ended the need for schooling that children obviously see as worthless, somehow, in the face, of kids NOT SHOWING UP?

The GRADUATION RATE INCREASED?

How is that even possible?

What's missing from the OSPI report card?

THESE numbers, provided by an OSPI report summary but missing from the actual report card itself.

Why aren't these numbers included on the Report Card?

Even with the obvious subterfuge OSPI is trying to sell us, these numbers are still horrific.

In fact, It was recently reported that Mississippi just passed Washington in 4th grade reading levels... 

Even though their expenditures per student are over $6000 LESS than Washington State, proving once again that money DOES NOT equate to academic outcomes.

Meanwhile, the actual Superintendent rails against districts implementing the President's Executive Order to keep boys out of both girl's locker rooms/bathrooms and sports.

All while we're punching out semi-literate cretins and academics continue to suffer at absolutely unacceptable outcomes.

Unfortunately, I can't just blame OSPI for this obvious systemic educational incompetence.

PARENTS have a role to play in this nightmare.

That parents either don't seem to know... or care... that political inculcation far exceeds academics in importance in Washington schools as shown by recent school/district-sponsored fringe-left progressive school organized walkouts/riots over ICE enforcement in this country. These outcomes are to be expected when both school boards and teachers are not held accountable for the horrific jobs their doing.

But parents... who drive change... are failing their children by accepting mediocre-at-best outcomes from overpaid prima donna brain-washing leftists masquerading as teachers... and our kids suffer as a result.

Will today FINALLY be the end of #DementiaJoe?

 #DementiaJoe has what's known as a "big boy" press conference at 2:30 PDT.

Talking heads are claiming that if (when) DJ screws this up, it will be the absolute end of him politically. Will it? Will he continue to hang on?

Keep in mind the fact that even if they run a 25th Amendment on Biden and remove him from office?

Biden's delegates still have to stick with him unless he releases them.

It's just a shame that leftists CLAIM to be all about "democracy," and then are quickly willing to trash it when they believe circumstances justify trashing it... Like whenever anyone disagrees with them, or wants to speak out against them.

Then? All bets are off.

The leftist primaries are over. Their people have spoken.

The reality is that these same people are panicking not because Biden's continued hold on office puts this entire country at risk.

They're panicking because they've been lying for years and they've finally been caught.

As recently as June 16th, these same people were calling the videos of DementiaJoe "Cheap Fake Videos" when we all knew they were as real as Hunter Biden's laptop, which they ALSO lied about and censored us for over a period of months.

That leftists are proven liars is obvious. Their failure to address this issue, if for no other reason than to have a plan in a can they could pull out and execute (You listening GOP? This ALSO applies to YOU) speaks to a level of astounding incompetence and self-denial. Isn't it about time the leftists paid the price?

This afternoon will likely be a disaster for DJ. But will it make any difference? If he hangs on after this, can we expect some serious medical problem... a stroke or some other medical episode to accomplish what Jill fears the most?
