"Cutting $4 billion would mean:

• Laying off 57,000 teachers, or 20 percent of the state’s teaching workforce. Or,

• Eliminating four weeks of the school year. Or,

• Increasing class sizes by 23 percent, making them about one-quarter bigger."

California is the 5th biggest economy in the fucking world! And I'm getting this shit.

My district alone is cutting the WHOLE bus program, firing up to 35 proctors, firing over 50 teachers, and firing half the janitors.
Which means HUGE class sizes, up to 45 kids IN A CLASS, theres not even enough desks for this shit!

Fuck you arnold, you lying piece of shit. You told the good people of california you wern't going to engage in special interests, but here you fucking go! And now youre DESTROYING the already horrid educational system.

My school is a dirty overcrowded piece of shit build in 1970. In one of the nicest areas in California.

My really really nice teacher is 'retiring' next year.... I wonder why.

And what really blows my mind is what we could be doing instead of laying off all these needed people, like how my school spend 1.5 fuckin million dollars on a football field 2 years ago. Or how our football program costs 600,000 dollars a year for my school alone for insurance. Not counting other sports. I can't even walk through my halls without punching people to move.

I'm honestly disgusted. I tried to go to a independent study center that the district funds to better myself and they said I need to be 25 credits behind. So Catholic school here i come next year.

Lastly, I wonder to myself why this? When alcoholics and drug addicts and illegal immigrants get fucking welfare from my parents HARD EARNED tax money; and not a DIME is going to my schools.

Thanks for this liberals.

(Ps sort of off subject but this shows how Obama is a cunt for saying 'if we wern't in iraq we could fund education and schools, this money would never get to my schools, or anyones, as you can see. Because even before the war my school was in the shitter.)

California produces alot of shit, and you can measure how much they produce.  In this case the produce a whole lot more shit than other countries/states/everything else in the world.

How pathetic. Thank god I'm already at university... but even still they're raising our fees and making us pay more. I can't wait to leave California. Too many illegal immigrants, this place is way over-crowded, the education system sucks... ugh, makes me wanna puke. I need to move to Montana or something.

Well at least that's a good deal. I'm stuck in the UC, where with the budget cuts, those dumb "UC Regents" people want to keep their paychecks so they don't have to get rid of any of their 50 cars or possibly sell one of their 3 or 4 vacation mansions, so they burden the poor college students with the cut instead.

I too had to laugh at that one.  23% is about one-quarter?  I would never have figured that one out! /sarcasm

They tried a similar thing in my school district about 2 years ago.  The plan got shot down after a LOT of protest (especially by high school students).

dude, I know what its like. I'm down here in SoCAL, and I've got a lot of good teachers too (History teachers here are superb) (Best public school in the county of over 1 mil people). this sucks royally, unfortunately those of us still in school, we can't do much about it. as for changing states, CA has a lot of great schools, so its almost better to stay here and deal with it than to cut and run. and yes CA has the fifth largest economy in the world, its also the only state to have all four geographic regions (costal, Mountains, plains [places like Napa Valley are considered plains regions], and desert), I'm guessing that thats what contributes to the economy thing.

Most of the time, Mexican students in California high schools are the offspring of illegal aliens.

Sorry man. I know you don't like the statement, but I have experience in the school systems, I've seen it with my own eyes.

And this is why Canada rocks. As bad as the education system sounds at times here, it actually kicks ass, people just expect others to learn for themselves. : /
