It seems like all the work that went into the last few years to boost diversity and encourage people to go into teaching is coming undone. It's frankly really discouraging to watch.

I've got extremely low confidence in racists' evaluation of education quality.
I guess it depends by state. Many of the states that don't fund education well have money issues. Even CA doesn't fund education well (below the national average), but we are better off than most states.
I’ve heard it called the Covid cliff. Not just happening in education.
Also seen many districts use that Covid money in ways they probably should’t have. But didn’t much of the money have time limits then you lost it? That seems to encourage hastily spending decisions.
It's just bad news one after the other for education. Students are falling behind, teachers have next to no support, and (not all) but many parents are not exactly being a part of the solution. Really do not know what the future holds, but we are not in for something good as it stands.
Schools of choice are killing smaller districts, more kids also going virtual which is a cut and paste diploma.
The Covid money was borrowed and accruing interest as we speak. The money was spent in-properly in many cases.
I am a CTE certified teacher/ RN. I taught the Maine state CNA course. Students were not emotionally prepared. They had no residence and complained. I lost confidence in my teaching. I loved what I did, loved the people, and loved my students. I felt like no matter what I did, it was never enough. I left and and went back into nursing. I taught for 7 years, I was hoping to make it to to 10 years.
Did we truly deal with COVID fall out? It seems teachers are burnt out also. Lĺ
