>Vote in school board elections (and really all elections) to elect pro-education candidates-
A key part of the equation. I know of a district where 5 seats are up for election, but only 4 turned in petitions. 2 of those are pro-education; the other 2 are hand-picked by an anti-public school lobbyist.

The town where Lebanon Bologna is made is high in resources and the district does pretty well. But the trumpkins are tying to upset that apple cart with their "no new taxes" pledge.

>property taxes are the worst way to fund schools
Folks always focus on property taxes but property taxes only provide some of the revenue stream. Let's also look at the earned income tax. Places where the average household income is above $100k gain quite a bit in collected EIT whereas places where the average household income is 50k or less end up having to do without. Maybe give less state aid to the better off places and give more to those places with more resources?

When many districts start at 42k, 60k is a bit much. I know things stretched out a bit thanks to the trump virus, but let's be real here.

What would this "fat" be?

Were the RWNJs to stop their war on teachers, more college grads would consider teaching as a profession.

If you are going to call, you need to call first thing in the morning. By 4, no one seems to answer any phone.

Reply to Is Fore River Brewing closing for good? by schilling207
Craft brew is over-subscribed. Lots of places suddenly closing as folks get tired of average beer with crappy sandwiches. And, unfortunately, the side hustles the breweries have as part of the business plan have not hired them as venues are often still less then 50% at the level before 3 years ago.

Don't use the 1" bendable PVC. Sure, it is less expensive than the 2" but it does not hold up well. I've done 2" with a fairly steep roof angle covered in the thick Poly - which does filter some of the sun but it worked ok. Not as good as glass on wood, but I could build it larger at a slightly lower cost.

Yeah, control of the House is again up in the air. All because some schmuck could not behave himself around women.
Seriously, tho, now that the 16 GQP women spoke up against him, do you suppose they might finally speak up about the wife beaters on their side of the aisle?

oh.

Sleepy Joe has gotten employment to the level where everyone who wants to work can work. Why are you still not working? Does Hoffman pay you to shitpost in his defense? Do I need to ask your gawd MastriaNO to do an exorcism to get you back into righteousness?

Lots of places cannot find workers, especially in the restaurant/bar field. The folks who walked out should have no problem finding a new job, but will this jerk find folks willing to work for him?

If employees walk out because the owner is a shitbag then it's hard to operate the business. Seems he'd rather listen to his ego than listen to the employees.

>Teachers get ~3 months off during the summer, a week off for spring break, almost a month off for winter break, almost a week for Thanksgiving, along with all other federal holidays. That's almost 4.5 months off work per year.
Dogshit comment. Most teachers are not free of their professional responsibilities when school is not in session. Keeping the certification requires continuing education and professional development. A good number of teachers act as club and class advisors, supervise School Play practice, oversee marching band, and coach the athletic teams. The classroom itself requires attention during breaks. Indeed, many teachers are getting classrooms ready for the new school year while you are still in your chaise lounge in your bikini sipping a fresh latte.
