These teachers should get fired

It's almost here

Cheaters never win… While this lesson might be taught to young children in order to discourage them from cheating, unfortunately, in the world at large, cheaters often do win and have a sizable advantage in the form of the shortcuts they're able to take instead of taking the long road like honest folk. Sure, sometimes they'll be caught, but if they have enough wealth or social status, they may just be given a slap on the wrist and sent on their way. Cheating in universities is rife, especially…

Is that still controversial?

Thanks, sweetie

Kids these days

Comfort is a crime

I don't want to alarm any educators who are here for some escapist memes about their profession. If you don't wish to discuss the brisk nature of the summer holiday , you can scroll right past this. For those of you who are similarly freaking out about how quickly the summer is going by, hello. I am so sorry that you have to return to the hellscape that is school in a few short weeks. Some people don't think teachers deserve to have their summers off, but I think teachers deserve even more time…

The power struggle between different forces in high school is real… in this case, OP relayed a high school experience that left them in everlasting awe of their mechanography teacher. Whenever an important date approached, all the students would line up in the courtyard, standing still in formation as one of the teachers would do a speech about whatever day it was and the importance of it. Said speeches would amount to maybe 10-15 minutes, which was fair, because keeping 150 teenagers lined up…

Teachers get a lot of blame for kids' bad behavior. Parents go to parent-teacher conferences and belligerently demand that the teacher explain why their child is not doing well in class. Teachers are expected to kindly explain to parents what the issue is, even when the parents are being rude and demanding. The truth is, it's usually not the teacher's fault that a kid is failing to thrive in the classroom, and yet they have to shoulder so much of the blame. It's demonstrably unfair. In a perfec…

Only the most rebellious members of society will relate to these memes.

Being a teacher in the U.S. is not the best paying job these days. Was it ever? There might have been a time when you could be a public school teacher and afford your own home, but these days, not many jobs—especially government jobs—provides that “luxury.” So, as one would expect, not many people are opting for those kinds of jobs. So schools are becoming more and more desperate for teachers. Unfortunately, it took getting desperate for many upper managements in the education system to be forc…

Some of us undoubtedly have terrible handwriting, but do any of us have handwriting so terrible that it can fool a leading forensic expert? It's important to remember that while being an expert on something means that you have a wealth of experience in the subject and have seen many things, it doesn't mean that you have seen every thing. Thinking otherwise is bound to land you in some embarrassing situations that call your experience into question. On top of this, in general, it's important to…

School picture day photographers have us in stitches with these tales of the strangest and cringiest things they've ever encountered. Because as you can imagine, photographing hundreds of students at a time could easily be hilarious. High school is a time for experimenting with your personality and identity. Some kids dye their hair pink or blue, or get lots of piercings, or embrace being goth for a while. You're young, and you don't know who you are or who you're going to be. Even through thos…

Tests exist to gauge understanding of a subject but often have the unfortunate effect of influencing the curriculum itself to achieve the best results for that test—even if that's not the best result for the students. Test designers and administrators are (usually) only humans themselves and are not free from the bias of their own perspectives and beliefs. Intentionally introducing a trick into the test that seeks to catch students out is probably unethical, especially when the test is one that…
