Kusd. Again. Wtf
Why does it take years tho smh
Anything government does not happen quickly.Neither good or bad. It’s the way it is , and it’s not going to change!
So glad my kids are NOT in KUSD and my youngest granddaughter is graduating this year!
Here’s a sharper, cleaner version that keeps an edge without going off the rails:
Man, what’s coming out about KUSD and these “naughty teacher” cases is disturbing on multiple levels. And you have to wonder—how much never even gets reported? Is actual learning still the priority, or has that taken a back seat?
Then there’s the administrative side—it feels like staggering incompetence. The way some of these schools are described—metal detectors, weapons, assaults, drugs, gangs, constant police presence—it sounds more like a correctional facility than a place for education.
It wasn’t anything like this 30 years ago when I graduated from Tremper. In a lot of ways, it feels like a reflection of a broader decline in American society.
Thank you! Well said and with some intelligent verbiage. We are broken for sure with moral decay in the lead.
Pretty accurate! When I graduated from ITA in just 2010 it was NOTHING like it is today. Students respected teachers and teachers had admin that supported teachers but rectified teachers when needed. No wiggle room for inappropriate behavior or incompetence. Fast forward a decade later, it couldn’t be more FUBR. Glad I struggled in high school and tried my best just for everything to turn out like THIS! 🤦
It took them YEARS? Great job KUSD!
Defund kusd and hang all the pedofiles hiding behind teaching jobs
Kusd isn’t the problem the problem is the pedophiles. Maybe they shouldn’t apply there?
Problem is it’s a target rich environment
Yes this dude always looked like a creep and super weird, but they want to fire people who actually reported school threats but keep pedos on staff.
This superintendent needs to go! $200,000 a year for this mess KUSD is in! Do something superintendent when these crisis’s come up! Thanks Kevin for exposing this to the public.
The USA schools are nothing more than gay indoctrination
KUSD needs to look into psychological tests prior to hiring. Maybe it will weed out the perverts. It is not the cure all but need to try something.
….Round of shots of your favorite beverage every time a report of deviant practices at KUSD is reported.…let the KUSD Deviants drinking game begin! 🤪
Thats it?!! Fired??? He needs to have his license revoked, be carried in an offender registry for life and neighborhood notified where ever he goes!
The education system was far more effective before the KUSD officially commenced in June 1967 for efficiency of public finance (e.g., consolidation of purchase volume discounts and other cost savings benefits). US Public education through 1965 was generally very effective. The effects of slow creeping cultural decline over 60 years; including rejection of proven teaching methods, non-curved evaluation of basic reading, writing, and arithmetic skills, and cancellation of gifted student programs, driven by cultural “feelings-based” feminization, was not and could have been anticipated in the US and Kenosha 1967 culture. Public school education quality declined slowly through the early 80’s, then accelerated quickly afterwards to its present condition today. The solution is tailored Woke & DEI purged private education or neighborhood home schooling with exemption of non-participants from the local/state public education tax burden.
Im glad my kids are out of the school system…..The child pedophiles in the KUSD is crazy and the protection they get is even crazier What about the kids HARBORSIDE IS DEFINITELY GOT SOME CREEPY STUFF HAPPENING. MY DAUGHTER CHANGED AFTER GETTING A MYSTERIOUS RANDOM TEXTS FROM SOME CREEPY SOURCE INSIDE OF THAT PLACE…. it wasn’t until years later she told me about it and showed me the texts…… It sickens me my daugand I went down a bad road for awhile because knew something was off and she wouldn’t tell me….We are way better now but man that place is scary…I don’t want anyone else to go thru it…..
A 21st century one room school house. Every child, parent, teacher accountable. Kid, parent, or teacher doesn’t cut it? Toss them.
In the future, if a case like this should be prosecuted would previous actions, or lack thereof, by school systems become public?
Taking a hypothetical prosecution forward, could school board members or administrators be called to testify under oath?
Hopefully A.I. will taking over the teaching soon. Teachers aren’t needed.
Just think what $ will be saved at the administration level!!
so kotarek and Morris you guys are doing a wonderful job running Bradford *sigh* by the way how is your best friend Kevin going to sweep this one under the rug this time ?
