Had a conversation with several teachers I'm acquainted with in the past week or so, and they've all confirmed it. Using the numbers they gave me, I did the math, and public school enrollment is down a literal 90% in our county. It's apparently so bad that they don't have enough students to play sports, have remedial classes, or even justify having multiple teachers for a single subject.
Most grades apparently have a single small class now, and the teachers sit around and wait all day until it's their turn to teach that single class. Apparently, everyone has pulled their kids out and is either sending them to one of the local Christian schools, or doing some form of homeschooling.
So 90% of the kids in my county are now better off. On the flip side, the other 10% are unfortunately kind of screwed since apparently their parents don't care and they're easily influenced by the degeneracy of the public school system, The schools are apparently now filled with kids who do nothing but curse, be disrespectful, and are open with their degeneracy. There's apparently kids asking their teachers for feet pics to sell online and talking about being furry's openly.
I've come to the conclusion, that at least around here, that the only kids left in the public school system are those whose parents don't care or support the degeneracy and just want to use the school as free baby sitting. Hence, the kids are acting out and doing this stupid crap as a means of getting the attention they're denied in the personal lives from their parents and other authority figures.
So bit bittersweet, but I consider this a local win nonetheless. Especially since there seems to be less and less kids on the buses as they drive by everyday, meaning that people are STILL pulling their kids out and that number is going down more everyday.
One thing that's really begun to bother me is people are taking the wrong lesson from the whole public school vs home school issue. The problem isn't the school itself, it's the people running them, especially in the last 30 years. This would seem to be the most obvious fact, but I've noticed many seem to dance around it.
