One parent said the influx of permission slips is getting “out of control” and “burdensome.”

    Welcome to a world where everything in school has to be okayed by every parent, else they risk losing their job if someone complains.

    Conservative fucks are gonna try to make this the future of public schools, because the inefficiency is the point.

      Exactly. The party of small government has one goal. To make government buearacracy so big and slow you throw your hands up in frustration and not participate. So then they can come in and saw only they can fix the mess they created and only make it bigger.

        Aha! The only solution to this endless waste of bureaucracy is privatization!

          Which then contracts out the service to the gov’t for the same price, cuts the service down to the easiest bare minimum, manages to screw that up while gov’t takes the blame, requires double the money from the gov’t to hire a ton of labor since the service is vital, gets huge profits from taxpayer money while providing nothing, gets service barely operational, calls it a success, charges gov’t more, fires most of workforce, starts charging taxpayers monthly separately on top of gov’t contract, adds fees, never touches service again, uses ill-gotten double-dipped tax payer money to lobby gov’t for anti-competitive regulations so no other companies can “innovate” and provide features that existed for a century when the service wasrun by the gov’t.

      Yet another reason I’m glad this state has a public online school program that I could put my daughter in. No permission slips ever. Even if they do have an (always optional) “field trip,” it involves a parent taking them to a location and staying there with them.
