    People complain that education is not currently working, here is your chance to re-envision it. Build large spaces with welding/3dpriners/car repair.

    Isn’t that already part of the public education formula? Vo-tech (Vocational Technical)/JVS/trade schools have been parts of many public high school systems for more than 50 years. Looks like Chicago already has them.

    Have mixed classes not based on age, with adults and teens.

    Your suggesting having unvetted adults casually mixing with teenagers in school on a daily basis? That sounds like a recipe for disaster.

      So you decided to just insert words into OP’s post and then respond to that instead of what they actually said. Please fuck all the way off back to Twitter with that bullshit.

      For fuck’s sake.

            Those are applicable to this line from the original poster: “Have mixed classes not based on age, with adults and teens.”

            We’re talking about schools here. Are you suggesting that public school wouldn’t happen daily?

            People hired by schools that are going to be in contact with children go through background checks for their past employment and criminal histories. The last thing a school would want would be to hire a child sex offender to be in unsupervised contact with the underage students. Are you suggesting that the school that now has these “mixed classes not based on age, with adults and teens” is going to perform full vetting and background checks on the adult students?

              No, they aren’t. You just read those in based on nothing.

              The only thing I am suggesting is that you’re just making shit up up that isn’t there, stop trying to move the goalposts.

                Tell me, from your interpretation please, of what “Have mixed classes not based on age, with adults and teens" would look like.

                • Who are the “adults” that are in “mixed classes” that are “not based on age”?
                • Where do these adults come from?
                • How often do these “mixed classes” occur?
