Notably: It’s unfortunate, but the Brendan Depa assault of his paraprofessional at Matanzas High School last February has now made it to Bill Maher, in a brief bit of outrage about “what have we let our schools turn into.” The clip of Depa assaulting the paraprofessional is one of several like it, starting with the sucker-punching of a teacher by a student whose phone had just been taken away. (Too much of the reporting on Depa has been outright racist, focusing on his size and color.) “A third of teachers in America say they’ve been harassed or threatened, and one in seven in this country has been physically attacked, 2023 kicked off with this story of a 6-year-old boy taking a gun to school in Newport News Va., shooting his teacher, and then declaring: ‘I shot that bitch dead.’ which would be a cool last line of a Mickey Spillane novel.” That got a smatter of laughter. Naturally, there’s a teacher shortage. Meanwhile, only a third of students can read at a profficient level.

Shall I describe the happiness it gave me to go into the classroom and pick up the chalk? This was really the day of my release, the restoration of my citizenship: I stopped noticing all the other things which made up the life of an exile.

IT’s ok, she’s a celebrity and they can say what they want. :) Celebrities always seem to be one or two steps above us normal humans and some swifties have her think for them. But do they all agree with her or any other celebrity. Interesting article a while back. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/00027642211042295
