Cattitude — Doggonit
By Anthony Smith
As someone who homeschooled (K-12) both my kids (youngest now a college sophomore) and subbed (K-12 in both public and private schools) for 3 years (prior to pandemic), there are not enough hours in the day to fit in everything you would like a student to learn. Take American history. In the dark ages (when I went to public school) — everything from Korea to where we were now (mid to lates 80s) got crammed into 2 weeks. That’s nearly 40 years ago. Literature (English, European, modern, classical, global)? Math? Science? Foreign languages? Computer literacy? Art? Music? Composition? Social sciences? Teachers (at least where I subbed) teach, perform many evaluations, fulfill a whole range of social services, cope with disruptive elements (how much can you teach when there are meltdowns, screaming, refusal to do work – and then in the higher grades, everyone does that AND has a phone “hidden” under their desk). I apologize for the rant but it’s not that simple. Learning cursive has positives (and for the record, yes, my two students were taught it. They didn’t (and don’t) like it. They rarely utilize it, since they primarily use computers, but hey I checked a box) but there is a HUGE quantity of valuable (and some of it necessary) knowledge out there. I don’t feel qualified to decide what underfunded, understaffed, overwhelmed teachers (with degrees in teaching) should be teaching. They already have a large number politicians and parents telling them.
