You're a teacher, you tell me, people are always complaining about bullying, lack of social workers and mental health professionals in school, etc. You honestly don't think this will make a difference?
I do more social work/student management than teaching and trust me 1,000 new social workers as big of # as it sounds really wouldn't make a difference nationally when you think about how many schools we have and i can bet you a liver 80% of those people would go to suburban & highly funded schools were there not really needed, even if these shooters tend to come from these backgrounds, inner city schools and over crowed public school would be left out
The second part about bullying is even more laughable, believe it or not schools already do tons of anti bullying things, especially over the past 5 years with all these high profile suicide/shooting cases. These kids get a bunch of workshops,movies,speakers, etc etc, schools comes up and implement policies that fall on deaf ears and again 99% of the time this isn't done to end bullying its done more to protect there asses IN CASE anything happens they can point back to a workshop or policy paper and say SEE we did do something its out of ours hands. Those $50 million dollars would be wasted.
All this money should be spent on
better school management and am talking about all the way from principles to teachers aides , on a daily basis i meet some of the most incompetent people in these schools working with kids, I would like to see a good chunk of these money thrown at colleges/universities so they can better prepare people to be teachers, now that would make a REAL difference. I mean shyt you can be a substitute teacher here just with a high school degree.
