>> Journey of Child Exploitation
Not only is this book an obvious exploitive attempt to promote Steve Poizner s political ambitions the book is poorly written and full of cliches This book is a rip off of every teaching movie ever made
>> WHAT ARE THE PROTESTORS SMOKING
It must be some good eeeish because Mt Pregnant has gotta be one of the worst schools in the state a state that likely has the worst schools in the country I know I live right across the street and have a litter of siblings who have or are attending This book merely sheds a little light on something that many locals have known for years but have been afraid to express because of fear of lowering property values and such
Look the vast majority of the students who attend Mt Pregnant are morons They re apathetic lazy obviously delusional and many are in gangs In fact their protests only reinforce their stupidity Finally somebody has the cajones to speak out on one of California s worst issues and the kids just want to look at the situation through rose tinted shades Puzzling Well pull em off
Now that the school has been placed underneath the microscope maybe it ll receive more or better funding from the state And now maybe just maybe there will be animal crackers up in the daycare To anybody who thinks that this is an unfair characterization of the school please respond with something more than Mt Pregant is the worst Ya if ur narrowminded enough to believe that there arnt any other struggling high schools in California
Just put down whatever you are ingesting and please ask yourselves why doesn t Mt Pregnant get any significant number of students in top schools or any colleges outside of the JC system for that matter Why do so many of our students have children that they can t possibly afford Why can t so many of our students even speak proper English And worse why do so many TEACHERS reciprocate the attitudes of students
I sure hope the situation isn t hopeless but a book doesn t seem like it s going to drastically change what I have witnessed for the past 20 years What needs to change is the attitudes of students They need to stop whining and take some responsibility for their abject failures I mean school pride is cool and all but it s better when you ve actually put in work to get there i e COLLEGE So quit being lame get off of that hater juice and focus on elevating your game Someone dissing you damn high school is so insignificant it makes the mind boggle
>> Thank you Mr Poizner
In this excellent and honest book Steve Poizner tells the truth about his experience in another low slung school in California and the powers that be execute a huffy retreat What a fine lesson in civic discourse to teach a group of students Of course not all of California s public school failures have to do with the immigration from Mexico legal and illegal of a peasant class of people who don t speak English at home but I m here to tell you that the USA had best wake up and look squarely at the facts Mexicans who have crossed our border over the course of the past thirty years as well as immigrants from other countries have turned our public school system inside out and upside down Not only do we spend more to accommodate these people in our classrooms but as well we expect our teachers to bend twist and otherwise tie themselves in knots in order to court failure That is not to say that immigration per se is bad for the USA which is after all a land of immigrants but it is to say that if we fail to admit to the effects of sudden and unregulated immigration on our schools then our schools will continue to deteriorate As a public entity our school system has little choice Tell the truth and you shoot yourself in the property tax foot Too bad that Mr Poizner seems unlikely to win nomination because I would have enjoyed voting for the man
