Welcome back to another season of Breaking the Fourth Wall of Public Education! David and Kevin are excited to be back for this new season after taking some time off to refund the project. We're back and ready for another great conversation about public education in the US today. Here's what you'll find on this all new episode.
Summary
Kevin and David discuss the recent surge in layoffs in public school districts across the United States due to funding issues. The misallocation of COVID funding and the failure of administrators to properly manage the budget are key factors contributing to this new crisis. They discuss the impact of layoffs on student support services and the overall functioning of schools, the politicization of education funding, and the ineffectiveness of merit pay. The lack of transparency in decision-making and the reactive approach to budgeting as well as the role of administrators in mismanagement further proves the need for accountability and transparency in school districts.
