Oklahoman student here. The legislature is trying to wait us out. We've been out since last Monday, and the OEA's demands have been made clear- Congress needs to pass a capital gains tax and Fallin needed to veto a repeal on the hotel tax. She didn't. Now we're gridlocked- the govt isn't listening anymore. I miss school, but my teachers and the future of our schools deserve better. We can't give in now.

I have a few friends that are attorneys that joined the teachers at the capitol on Monday. (Side note: if you haven’t seen a video of that, please look one up. It’s amazing.) They agreed that the representatives that are refusing to even hear any bills that would increase funding for education are just waiting until the Wednesday, the first day to file to run in the upcoming elections, to see if they are going to be unopposed or not. Hopefully by tomorrow afternoon they will all change their tunes. I know of many, many people, mainly teachers, who are going to run against them. Also, I was a student in Oklahoma, I have 2 kids attending school here, and I have several friends that are teachers and I’ve never seen or heard of creationism being taught in a public school. I’m sure the private religious schools around here teach it, but that’s about it.

This is bad for schools. What bothers me is how government is belittling teachers like children.

What it's like being a teacher: - work from 7:00 AM till midnight (gotta correct homework and do prep AFTER class.) - blow 50% of your salary on supplies for the classroom. - work all day Saturday, either doing prep/correcting homework OR doing chaperoning for some school function. - blow another 40% of your salary on mandatory "workshops" so you can "upgrade" your skills (but, really, you're attending these only because the admin made some shady deal with a testing company and if you don't attend, ha-ha, you're fired.) Oh, and these workshops will be done during the summer so, no, you DON'T get the summer off, even though misinformed dumbfucks insist you do. - wake up at age 50 or thereabouts and realize you're spent 1/4 of your life slaving away in education and all you've got to show for it is ill health (no time to exercise since you're always at school), zero social life, MAYBE a couple grand in your IRA (thanks to all that school supply-buying), and--as Jeffries said--it pretty much looks like you WILL be living alone in the back seat of a Yaris or in a dingy rented room somewhere if you retire. So, yeah, it's no-fucking-wonder that nobody wants to be a teacher anymore. Striking teachers in Oklahoma? Hell, let's not stop there--I'm all for a NATIONAL teachers' strike. Maybe that would wake up the dim-bulb GOP wankers who KEEP CUTTING EDUCATION BUDGETS EVERY ELECTION TERM. If you want better-educated students, you're gonna have to give teachers something to work with other than ratty, 30 year-old textbooks.

If you're a dumb-shit homework won't fucking help, and if your lucky enough to have parents that teach you how to read sitting in class is pretty much enough as long as part of class is dedicated to exercises of the daily studies. I never did homework, ever. If i hadn't gotten A's and B's on test i would have flunked and not from a lack of knowledge. Shit, my 6th grade report card was 2 F's 3 D's and a C. I aced the placement test because I actually kind of listened in class, in fact they wanted me to skip 7th grade. Seriously homework is fucking stupid!

Republican logic: let's cut the taxes of corporate CEOs and give them higher bonuses, that will incentivize attracting talent. Let's threaten to cut the salaries and benefits of teachers to incentivize getting talent in schools... WTF? You know why so many European and Asian nations do better in education? Because they incentivize attracting talent by respecting teachers and giving them the necessary benefits for a comfortable (not necessarily rich) life. You know why Japan is doing so well in education compared to the US for example? Because they respect, support, and honor their teachers! A lot better incentive than the 'oh he became a teacher because he wasn't good at doing anything so fuck him!' attitude in the US.

How tax cuts for the rich led to the Oklahoma teachers strike 1) Oklahoma has been cutting the top tax rate for more than a decade 2) These tax cuts hit education the hardest These tax cuts, which were passed in 2004, ultimately caused Oklahoma to lose about $1.022 billion in annual revenue. 3) Who benefited most from the tax cuts? The wealthy. 4) Falling teacher compensation is a larger national trend

Did you ever think about the fact that the state might have lowered the tax rate because the super rich were leaving the state due to the tax rate? That's the funny thing about win the vast minority pays the overwhelming majority of your taxes. So a little bit less of their money is way better than none of their money, because they moved out of the state. Maybe focus on budgets that are actually capable of educating people with the money available rather than continuing these sweetheart deals with these companies that the government giving out.

I believe most teachers really want more district funding for their schools as to support them in teaching. Not just for materials like markers and books, but improve aesthetics, arts program to stimulate interest and diversity, field trips to build culture and experience in kids. To say they just want a pay raise is short sided. Besides, there are a few teachers in the public school program who don't deserve raised, looking at high School teachers who stopped caring about the regular courses.

His teaching style was night and fucking day. Nearly a different person. The kids weren't receptive in that class, they were rude little assholes actually. He was constantly agitated and beaten down. The AP course he taught, he was my favorite teacher! Interactive, engaging, treated us like adults. Imaging having to teach the kids that don't give a shit on a crap salary.

There is no statistical correlation between education expenditure and student achievement. It's the system that's shit, not the funding.

Median per capita income in the US tends to be higher than countries such as Canada, Australia, Germany, and the Netherlands, yet our teacher salaries tend to be less than each of those countries. And NO that doesn't mean that paying teachers less results in higher incomes for everybody else LOL. It means that we should be investing more in quality education.

It's interesting that the folks that live in a state/community refuse to pay higher taxes for a program (education) and then complain about it when the money is not there for said program. It seems obvious to me that the parents and other adults in that state/community really don't care about that program (education again). If they don't care about educating their kids, why is this making the news?

Yup, I was one of those who got out of teaching within the first five years. It was actually more lucrative for me to go back to college and get an accounting degree than it was to continue teaching.

I taught for one year. I made $22K that year as a teacher. I left not because of the salary (which was ridiculously low), but because the fucking school district was reorganizing and they couldn't figure out until April whether they'd have a job for me the following year. By that point I had already accepted a full scholarship to get my masters, finished that and went on to get a PhD. That's how stupid the American school system is! Americans don't value education -- it might lead to thinking. That year, I was also a Captain in the Air National Guard and with my part time work, made more than I did as a full time teacher.
