Parents Get The Last Laugh: Nationwide Public School Districts Fume Over Why Their Budgets Are About To Be Slashed

Teacher’s unions and woke school districts really overplayed their hand.

After two years of being the center of controversy the actions of woke public school groups are finally starting to catch up with them.

Parents who watched their children tortured by mask mandates, poor remote learning, and woke lesson plans have had enough.

Slowly parents began to pull their kids from public school because they had lost people’s trust.

Now, public school districts are bracing for massive budget cuts because enrollment in some areas of the country is down 50%.

The Associated Press reported that they were surprised that it was parents deciding one by one to move their kids to a private school or homeschool program.

From the Associated Press:

A school system in suburban Kansas City is eliminating over 100 jobs, including kindergarten aides and library clerks. Oakland, California, is closing seven schools. Other districts around the country are merging classrooms, selling buildings and leaving teaching positions unfilled in order to close budget gaps.

Public school systems are beginning to feel the pinch from enrollment losses tied to the coronavirus pandemic.

Money for schools is driven partly by student headcounts, and emergency provisions in many states allowed schools to maintain funding at pre-pandemic levels. But like the billions of dollars of federal relief money that have helped schools weather the crisis, those measures were not meant to last forever.

The AP found that seven schools in the Oakland area are shutting down for good.

“Where did those kids go?” Hutchison asked during a recent public meeting. “Where are they? They didn’t come back this year. That’s what’s laying on that additional reduction in our funding.”
