With the new school year approaching, there is a heated online debate over school supplies between teachers and parents. There are parents who refuse to buy school supplies for their child(ren) mostly due to their disagreement about teachers taking the supplies and putting them into a community box.
If you're in a low performing school, there are simply too many irresponsible parents who don't care about education at all other than view it as daycare. Therefore, the few parents who actually do care end up lifting all the heavy weight. To make matters worse, low performing schools also are majority run with woke leftist staff that put the burden on parents who do right. Is it any surprise that the bulk of this conflict over school supplies is very heated are happening in these districts?

Another reason not to live among ghetto folks, and ghetto areas.
It's actually a very simple solution:
PARENTS ONLY BUY SUPPLIES FOR THEIR CHILD.
However, teachers can note at the bottom of the school supply list asking for donations to be made to a community box.
The teachers today are mostly inexperienced and very incompetent at classroom management. Let's just say that I know this firsthand. They do ask for supplies that will not be frequently used, but is just a nice thought. Doesn't really enrich the child's learning or performance at all.
Back in the day when I was in grade school, OUR TISSUE BOX STAYED IN OUR DESK, rather than go into a closet for the "community".
This taught us to share and resolve our own issues amongst ourselves. If a kid didn't have tissue or a red marker, he simply had to learn how to ask a classmate. This required him to know how to get along with others so that kids would want to share.
THE PROBLEM HAS AND ALWAYS WILL BE BAD PARENTS AND WOKE LEFTIST TEACHERS/ADMINISTRATORS DOING EVERYTHING FOR THESE BAD PEOPLE, BUT REALLY ASKING THE GOOD PEOPLE TO DO IT.
