    My god… telling elementary schoolers- young children- they could get shot or killed for bad grades… what kind of horrible inhumane teachers are at this school?

        Not just the state, lots of them have left the profession. Why get paid peanuts to be in a potentially life threatening situation ( any school shootings) be berated by teenagers ( or younger) daily with no consequence , and you aren’t even allowed to teach them certain things, just what the government thinks they need to learn. It’s a shame really.
