So I just started working at an Elementary School in my town!
Oh wow! Congrats! What grade are you teaching?
3rd grade.The main purpose of an elementary school is to educate children usually between 4-11 years old
Yes, I am glad that the children have a place to go and learn.
There were 92,858 elementary schools in 2001! That's a lot
That is a ton. No wonder teacher's don't get paid that much. The school's would go broke.
Well, there is overcrowding for sure but there is also a great lack of funding in general. Students learn basic arithmetic and mathematics in elementary school.
The lack of funding is sad. I think there should be more pride taken in our children's education.
Or education in general. We seem to prefer debt based rather than knowledge based learning.
Sad but true. The world today has messed up priorities.
