I had an Aunt who was a teacher. She had taught in one room school houses, grades 1-8. She took pride in her profession.
But that was back in the stone age. Back when the day started with the ““Pledge of Allegiance”
and God had not yet been kicked out of the classroom.

Then there’s John Dewey and the Frankfurt School who’s philosophies on indoctrinating teachers who in turn indoctrinate their students, in Cultural Marxism and to become a society without belief. Did I mention also the indoctrination of Climate Change?
Middlebury College is now a $74,000 a year (adult?) daycare center providing “safe spaces” so little snowflakes won’t melt.
When I was in High School a “69” was a big fat “F”. ( I know from personal experience). Not anymore.
The also told us to “question everything”. How quaint. Now of course everything is “settled”. Now bow down to your betters.
