I worked for Fayette County schools. It’s extremely corrupt.. I worked one year at Brian station no way in hell I would’ve worked multiple years.. one of the guys in our department was full-blown communist and he was an unabashed communist bragged about it to the kids. Bragged about it to get the job. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. It’s like they want Brian station to be a failing school. Come up with idiot policies of forces teachers to have to decide between holding the line for the principal and doing what’s right for the kids.

My sons went to Bryan Station and barely recovered. They actively attempted to dissuade students from going to 4 year colleges.

Didn’t FCPS credit rating get down graded by Moody’s?!

Overall KY education system isn’t great. Not sure why it hasn’t been a priority among law makers to overhaul.

JCPS isn’t much better. Bureaucratic bloat, political BS, unions…

Would like to see Andy use some of that fire and Brimstone he used to get MB scooted on cleaning up something that actually matters and is taking real tax payer money.

Sounds like you would have been a powerful force for good had you stayed but I don’t blame you a bit for getting out. I jettisoned my original plans of being a medieval lit professor for the same crap on a national scale at the next level.

lol no I taught AP world history and psychology
That’s cool. I absolutely loved History and still do to this day. When you say world history, what time range did you teach? If that makes sense. lol.

When I went to high school, PLD, BS was nothing but thugs. Has that changed?

This is a strikingly poorly written post for someone who claims to have been an educator.

I don't think it is right to generalize like that. There were a lot of rough kids there coming from rough backgrounds. One of the kids playing football with my son had to work after school while playing football to help his grandparents with finances. Working 20 hours a week while playing football and going to school isn't easy but if you saw him on the street, you might think "thug". He wasn't. One of the biggest problems I saw was low expectations from parents as well as teachers.

True. I probably shouldn’t speak in as broad of terms but I’m just reporting from my experiences. Dunbar had thugs as well. I was friends with all of them.

I get what you are saying though. Thanks for the response.

One more thing, didn’t they get a new school somewhat recently? I’ve heard it’s already been trashed. Dunbar was like 2 decades old when I went there and it was still in great shape. Just saying. I’ve Dunbar is trash now. I got one nephew that goes there and another that transferred to west jessamine.
