Now they know how a "good school system" works.



i dont know about that. ive never heard fellow faculty members complain about that. ive got a few teachers in my family, and as i mentioned, i taught for a few years. i have seen all this sh*t and it wasnt distracting.

You want to know what teachers think is distracting?? messages from the office interrupting class, constant interruptions from anyone coming in through the door, kids coming to class 20 minutes late for whatever reason, cd walkmans, sneaky eating of food in class/gum, kids who wont shut up in class and blurt out comments, kids forgetting or not doing their work or not bringing their books, kids coming to class high, falling asleep in class, absentism, etc... what theyre wearing is the least of their problems.

a "good school system" is one in which students can come in any condition and still learn what theyre supposed to, that would be a good school system.
