School Officials Hoped To Hide Bus Beating, But One Thing Stopped Them
Public schools are run by really stupid people who have more book smarts than street smarts.
People who run America’s public schools enable incidents like the one reported last week, in which a male student beat the hell out of a 10th-grade girl on a school bus before putting her in a chokehold.
All this was captured on an iPhone. Thank goodness because otherwise the public school system would have quietly swept it under the rug. The school district never notified the girl’s mother and stepfather, who only learned about the beating five days later.

As I reported last year, don’t expect a public school employee to intervene and stop this barbarity. That would require the principal or vice principal to do a lot of paperwork afterwards and then report it to the state and federal departments of education. And those bureaucrats might penalize the school or the school district by assigning it a lower academic score or provide less state and federal funding.
Some school system employees don’t intervene for fear of two things: getting fired or having to testify in court if the aggressor’s parents (or parent) sue the school district.
To summarize, public school employees have every incentive to look the other way. That’s due solely to mandates passed down from the state and federal governments.
It’s a messed-up way of doing things, don’t you think?

To a lesser extent, I’m also knocking the school administrators who carry out those policies. They care more about getting in enough years to qualify for their pensions than creating a hospitable learning environment for well-behaved kids. They can afford to upsetting the parents of the children they supervise, but they absolutley cannot afford to upset their higher-ups at the state and federal capitals.

And if you think school vouchers aren’t the solution then maybe it’s time the government gave out massive tax breaks to parents. Parents could use that extra money to send their kid to the school that best fits his or her needs.
The public schools have a monopoly and don’t care about your child’s best interests — at least until and unless they compete against somebody else for the right to educate your child.
Spare a lot of children and a lot of parents a lot of headaches and a lot of physical pain.
Fix this mess.
