Florida's fix for teacher shortage feels like a proto-militaristic takeover of schools

discussing the policy Friday, DeSantis targeted “union bosses” for “insisting teachers get certain credentials.”

According to DeSantis, the vets he referred to, despite lacking degrees, have a trait more important than experience. “Every morning our students recite the Pledge of Allegiance while looking at the star-spangled banner,” DeSantis said. “And it’s fitting that the teacher in the classroom is somebody who took an oath and put his or her life on the line to preserve, protect and defend our flag and the freedom it represents.”makes the plan seem like the beginning of a proto-militaristic takeover of the public education system in Florida.

Classrooms are meant to facilitate the exchange of ideas, and a trusting student-teacher relationship is essential for that to happen. Students should see their teachers as sources of information whom they can engage in healthy dialogue.

thereidout Sounds better than hiring current woke liberals with gender disphoria.

thereidout

thereidout Florida needs to fire DeSantis in November and put a Democrat in the Governor’s office. DeSantis has caused thousands of Floridians to die because of his COVID policies. He is destroying Florida public schools. Teachers a leaving the school system because of his dumb policies

thereidout His definition of patriotism

thereidout MSNBC Anti Veteran is Nothing new. The Florida shortage of Teaches has moved the thinking State of Florida to look for Educated Veterans to join the Academic Community. But like always “ the Teachers Union are at a loss to Deal with such a calamity.

thereidout schools have been bringing in military to recruit teenagers for many years, but this is a new level of it

thereidout Patriotism, hell. He is desperate. He really screwed up.

thereidout Buckle up MAGATS

thereidout Idiot in Chief

thereidout I’m good with it!

thereidout They will quit once they find out they have to to deal with Republican school board job regulations, crazy parents trying to put them in jail and of course the low pay.

thereidout Why is this so crazy? Minneapolis teachers union just added language in their contact that says white people to be laid off first... Of that isn't racist in intent, idk what is. But the 'don't say gay' bill is super bad...

thereidout You recruit plumbers to teach plumbing. You recruit teachers to teach.

thereidout A lot of kids are really smart. You better know your stuff before you get in front of the classroom or you will get eaten alive

thereidout Why doesn't he just open teacher recruitment centers that follow the MAGA rallies?

thereidout

thereidout WriteInTrumpFL

thereidout Now where have I heard this story before? Hmm,

thereidout Patriotism is not merely defined by a willingness to join the armed forces.

thereidout Joy is a racist homophobe, both well documented.

thereidout Nice try

thereidout Patriotism? Seriously?

thereidout Actually it prioritizes fascism

thereidout Classroom and the battlefield are two different set of skills. These kids won’t learn anything.

thereidout President DeSantis I mean Governor DeSantis has been doing a great job and I trust him far more then the progressives sitting in the Department of Uneducation.

thereidout Yep. Fake fake fake news so called MSNBC news. Indeed you’re enemy of we the people of the world. We. Don’t need your propaganda news. Down you go fake news so called MSNBC news

thereidout Putting highly volatile veterans in schools teaching kids that could trigger aggressive outbursts from the veteran... or kids coming home with extensive thoughts of guns, bombs etc....

thereidout Better vets that peddos

thereidout People should stop moving to FL. Enough is enough. PLEASE stay in CA and NY.

thereidout Patriotism? Desantis? He's a nazi, courts have said his laws are unconstitutional MSFULLOSHIT

thereidout Fascism. It’s not patriotism. It’s fascism.

thereidout Screw you America hating Leftist Propaganda machine

thereidout Florida kids won't have a future if this continues... good luck getting into college or university or finding meaningful employment...

thereidout DeSantis is working to cancel all morals, values, beliefs & cultures that don't align with his fascist agenda. Turning Florida classrooms into his own political, religious & racist indoctrination is unpatriotic and dangerous. RemoveRon

thereidout

thereidout Don't veterans have PTSD? Will someone be responsible for checking their mental status before hiring? I'm guessing: no.

thereidout “Patriotic” DeSatan is devilishly clever. He’s destroying public education while driving away dedicated teachers, now filling a 9,000 teacher hole with x military with questionable transferable skills? Why not accountants, EMT, law enforcement, engineers, meteorologists, etc.?

thereidout Children will now be enlisted for school. Using the term enrolled will be considered obsolete.

thereidout Why does this story seem untrue?

thereidout Patriotism toward the confederacy

thereidout He really is getting off the rails....is this really a serious GOP Presidential candidate? That barrel has no moral or ethical bottom

thereidout Keeping Florida Dumb. His new campaign slogan.

thereidout There is nothing patriotic about supporting DeSantis' fascist agenda.

thereidout DeSantis' supporters should watch this brilliant comedy sketch by Mitchell & Webb, 'are we the baddies?!' Here: 👇 👆

thereidout How many decades is it going to take to undo all the catastrophic harm that DeSantis has done?

thereidout You hate veterans so much you have a problem with them teaching So they can go defend our nation no problem but teaching our children that’s where you draw the line I can’t believe this anti-American and Anti-Veteran network still exists!

thereidout If the worse thing my kid will walk away from at the end of a school day is structure and the ability to recite the flag pledge....I'm ok

thereidout What could go wrong putting unemployed and unvetted veterans in classrooms full of kids?

thereidout Uh no. I am a veteran and this is a piss poor decision. Veterans are not trained to be teachers. Warriors are not trained to be teachers. This is an attempt at jamming vets into education to then weaponize their patriotism to radicalize them into unethical partisan acts. Joy, wtf

thereidout It’s not troubling to most of the country. Again. Enjoy your dismal ratings, it’s earned.

thereidout Patriotism? Give me an effing break. The guy tries to violate some provision of the US Constitution on a weekly basis. He's a right wing thug with a racist, homophobic agenda for FL schools. He's not looking for patriotism.

thereidout This is very scary. And he is a front runner for a party I once belonged to and supported. When is this utter insanity going to stop.

thereidout Misdirection ,as usual from the news. The offer was to assist veterans in acquiring the credentials to teach.

thereidout Congratulations on brainwashing the Americans. Highly entertaining. You have them so fucked up that they don't believe the president's son is an incestuous pedophile despite gigabytes of public data that says otherwise.

thereidout What could go wrong?

thereidout It’s ridiculous

thereidout You says this like it’s a bad thing. MSDNC is on the wrong side of history.
