Proposed Maryland Legislation 2025

[TPD]

Wow - some crazy crap being proposed in Annapolis. Getting close to the end. This caught my eye:

House Bill 504 - Excellence in Maryland Public Schools Act

This bill removes several former certification requirements for teachers, including:

• Passing subject-specific examinations
• Passing a basic literacy skills test
• Holding a degree from a regionally accredited institution
• Meeting a minimum GPA of 3.0, among others

If you can't find enough qualified teachers, lower the standards! This bill has passed the house (100-39) and is now in the senate.

Is this where all the crazy education funding is being spent on .?

For your consideration ...


Now imagine paying your property tax bills in the thousands yearly to pay these stupid illiterate 'teachers' $60,000+++ in addition to super generous benefit packages whilst you labor away daily only to come home to your dumbed-down children that seem to only know the difference in pronoun meanings.

This state is so fu*ked.

Start HOME SCHOOLING YOUR CHILDREN PEOPLE!!! It will not be getting any better.

And now dumbing down "education" to add to the list. When I taught Calculus in 1980 I had a 100% that understood it and passed it. Now, who knows.

I heard the Left Wing States, perhaps MD to be included that they Dems are trying to pass a law "RESTRICTING" people from educating their own children!! No kidding! It's more than insane.

I happened to be in Langhorne the day after her election. Her victory speech gave me that vibe. But all over the city they were saying "She is like us"

She is like them. Ghetto AF, ignorant, nasty, probably drug addicted.

Same thing was said about the lottery.
