I Tennessee me te nuinga o ngā whenua matatika o te motu, kei te pāngia ngā whakataunga iti engari he mea nui e mahia ana e ngā kaiako i ia rā, e ngā ture hou e whakahē ana i te ariā iwi arohaehae.
Waitohu mō te pānui kore utu o ia rā a Chalkbeat Tennessee kia mau tonu ai tō mōhio ki ngā kura o Memphis-Shelby County me ngā kaupapa here mātauranga a te kawanatanga.
Kua uru atu te whakahaere kaiako nui rawa atu o Tennessee ki roto i tētahi kereme whakahē i tētahi ture ā-motu e rua tau te roa i whakawhāiti i ngā mea ka taea e rātou te whakaako mō te iwi, te ira tangata me te whakaaro pākiki i roto i te akomanga.
I roto i tā rātou kereme, i tukuna i te pō Tūrei ki te kooti ā-motu o Nashville e ngā rōia mō te Tennessee Education Association, e kī ana he koretake, he takahi i te ture te whakatakotoranga o te ture 2021, ā, he whakaaro takitahi te mahere whakamana a te kawanatanga.
E whakapae ana hoki te amuamu ko ngā ture "kaupapa aukati" o Tennessee e whakararuraru ana i te whakaakoranga o ngā kaupapa uaua engari he mea nui kei roto i ngā paerewa mātauranga o te kawanatanga. E whakatakoto ana ēnei paerewa i ngā whāinga ako kua whakaaetia e te kawanatanga hei ārahi i ētahi atu whakataunga marautanga me ngā whakamātautau.
Ko te kereme ture tēnei te tuatahi mō tētahi ture ā-rohe tautohetohe, ko te tuatahi o tōna momo puta noa i te motu. I paahitia te ture i waenganui i ngā whakahē a ngā kaitiaki tikanga ki te aukati a Amerika i te kaikiri i muri i te kōhurutanga o George Floyd i te tau 2020 e tētahi pirihimana mā i Minneapolis me ngā whakahē whakahē kaikiri i whai ake.
I tautohe te Mema Paremata o Oak Ridge, a John Ragan, tētahi o ngā kaitautoko o te pire a te Rōpū Republican, me whai ture tēnei hei tiaki i ngā ākonga K-12 mai i ngā mea e kitea ana e ia me ētahi atu kaihanga ture he ariā pāpori tinihanga me te wehewehe mō te moepuku, pērā i te ariā iwi nui. E whakaatu ana ngā rangahau a ngā kaiako kāore tēnei kaupapa mātauranga e whakaakona ana i ngā kura K-12, engari he nui ake te whakamahi i roto i te mātauranga teitei hei tūhura i te āhua o te whakapūmautanga o te kaikiri pūnaha i roto i ngā mahi tōrangapū me te ture.
I whakamanahia e te Paremata o Tennessee i raro i te mana o te Rōpū Republican te pire i ngā rā whakamutunga o te wāhanga o te tau 2021, i ngā rā i muri i tōna whakaurunga. I hainatia wawetia e Kāwana Bill Lee hei ture, ā, i muri mai i taua tau ka tuhia e te Tari Mātauranga o te kawanatanga ngā ture hei whakatinana i tēnei. Mēnā ka kitea he takahi ture, ka ngaro pea ngā raihana a ngā kaiako, ā, ka ngaro pea te pūtea a te iwi whānui i ngā rohe kura.
I ngā tau tuatahi e rua, i whai mana te ture, he iti noa ngā amuamu, kāore hoki he whiu. Engari kua whakaurua mai e Ragan he ture hou e whakawhānui ana i te porowhita o te hunga ka taea te tuku amuamu.
E whakapae ana te amuamu kāore te ture e whakarato i tētahi whai wāhitanga tika ki ngā kaiako o Tennessee ki te ako i ngā whanonga me ngā whakaakoranga e rāhuitia ana.
"Kei roto ngā kaiako i tēnei wāhi hina, kāore tātou e mōhio he aha tā tātou e taea ai, he aha rānei ngā mea kāore e taea e tātou te mahi, te kōrero rānei i roto i te akomanga," te kī a Katherine Vaughn, he kaiako tawhito nō Tipton County e tata ana ki Memphis, ā, ko tētahi o ngā kaiwhakaako tokorima i whakawakia." I tēnei take.
"Kāore rawa te whakatinanatanga o te ture — mai i te kaiārahi ki te whakangungu — e tino kitea ana," te tāpiri a Vaughn. "Nā tēnei ka noho ngā kaiako ki roto i te ara koretake."
E whakapae ana hoki te kereme ture kei te whakatenatena te ture i te whakatinanatanga tūpono me te whakahāwea, ā, e takahi ana i te Whakatikatika Tekau mā Whā ki te Ture o Amerika, e aukati ana i tētahi kāwanatanga ki te "tango i te ora, te herekore, te taonga rānei o tētahi tangata me te kore he tukanga ture tika."
"Me mārama te ture," te kī a Tanya Coates, te perehitini o TEA, te rōpū kaiako e ārahi ana i te kereme.
I mea ia he "maha ngā hāora" e whakapaua ana e ngā kaiako ki te ngana ki te mārama ki ngā ariā 14 he ture kore, kei roto hoki i te akomanga, tae atu ki te mea he "tino whakahāwea iwi, he whakahāwea ira tangata rānei" a Amerika; te "tango i te kawenga" mō ngā mahi o mua a ētahi atu mema o te iwi kotahi, o te ira tangata rānei nā tō rātou iwi, o te ira tangata rānei.
Kua pā kino te koretake o ēnei kupu ki ngā kura, mai i te huarahi e whakautu ai ngā kaiako ki ngā pātai a ngā ākonga ki ngā rauemi e pānuihia ana e rātou i roto i te akomanga, e ai ki te pūrongo a TEA. Hei karo i ngā amuamu e pau ana te wā me te mōrearea pea o ngā whiu a te kāwanatanga, kua huri ngā kaiārahi kura i ngā mahi whakaako me ngā mahi kura. Engari i te mutunga, e ai ki a Coats ko ngā ākonga te hunga e mamae ana.
"Kei te aukati tēnei ture i te mahi a ngā kaiako o Tennessee ki te whakarato i tētahi mātauranga whānui, e ahu mai ana i ngā taunakitanga ki ngā ākonga," te kī a Coates i roto i tētahi panuitanga pāpāho.
Kei roto i te kereme 52-whārangi te roa, he tauira motuhake mō te pānga o te aukati ki ngā mea e akohia ana e te tata ki te miriona ākonga kura tūmatanui o Tennessee, ā, kāore e akohia ana i ia rā.
"Hei tauira, i Tipton County, kua huri tētahi kura i tana haerenga ā-tau ki te Whare Taonga Motu mō ngā Tika Tangata i Memphis ki te mātaki i tētahi kēmu pēihipora. I Shelby County, ko tētahi kaiārahi waiata kua whakaako i ngā ākonga mō ngā tekau tau ki te waiata me te mārama ki te kōrero kei muri i ngā himene e waiatatia ana e rātou ka kiia he pononga." "wehewehe" he takahi rānei i te aukati," e kī ana te kereme. Kua tangohia e ētahi atu rohe kura ngā pukapuka mai i tā rātou marautanga nā te ture.
Kāore te tari o te Kāwana e tuku kōrero mō ngā kereme e tatari ana, engari i whakaputa te kaikorero a Lee Jed Byers i tētahi kōrero i te Wenerei mō te kereme: "I hainatia e te Kāwana tēnei pire nā te mea me whai kawenga ia mātua mō te mātauranga o ā rātou tamariki. Kia pono, e ngā ākonga o Tennessee. Me whakaako te hītori me te kaupapa ā-iwi i runga i ngā meka, kaua i runga i ngā kōrero tōrangapū wehewehe."
Ko Tennessee tētahi o ngā whenua tuatahi i whakamana i ngā ture hei whakawhāiti i te hohonutanga o te matapakinga akomanga mō ngā ariā pēnei i te kore taurite me te mana motuhake o te hunga mā.
I te marama o Poutū-te-rangi, i pūrongo te Tari Mātauranga o Tennessee he iti noa ngā amuamu kua tukuna ki ngā rohe kura o te rohe e ai ki te ture. He iti noa ngā piira i tae mai ki te tari mō ngā whakataunga ā-rohe.
Nā te mātua o tētahi tauira kura tūmataiti i te Rohe o Davidson tētahi. Nā te mea kāore te ture e pā ki ngā kura tūmataiti, kua whakatau te tari kāore he mana o ngā mātua ki te tuku piira i raro i te ture.
I tukuna tētahi atu amuamu e tētahi mātua nō te Rohe o Blount e pā ana ki a Wings of the Dragon, he pukapuka pakiwaitara i kōrerotia mai i te tirohanga a tētahi tamaiti manene Hainamana i te tīmatanga o te rautau 20. I whakakorehia e te kāwanatanga te piira i runga i āna kitenga.
Heoi anō, i tangohia tonutia te pukapuka e ngā kura o Blount County i te marautanga o te tau ono. E whakaahua ana te kereme i te kino o te hinengaro i pā ki tētahi kaiako tawhito 45-tau te pakeke i "whakama i ngā marama o te whakawakanga whakahaere mō te amuamu a tētahi mātua takitahi mō tētahi pukapuka taiohi toa." Kua whakaaetia tana mahi "In Danger" e te Tari o Tennessee. mātauranga, ā, kua tangohia e te poari kura o te rohe hei wāhanga o te marautanga ā-rohe.
I whakakahoretia hoki e te tari te tirotiro i tētahi amuamu i tukuna e Williamson County, ki te tonga o Nashville, i muri tata mai i te whakamanatanga o te ture. I kī a Robin Steenman, te perehitini ā-rohe o Freedom Moms, ko te kaupapa pānui me te mātauranga Wit and Wisdom e whakamahia ana e ngā kura o Williamson County i te tau 2020-21 he "kaupapa tino pākiki" e meinga ai ngā tamariki kia "kino ki tō rātou whenua me tetahi ki tetahi" . me ētahi atu." / ki a rātou anō rānei.
I kī tētahi kaikorero ko te tari anake te hunga e whai mana ana ki te tirotiro i ngā kereme mai i te tau kura 2021-22, ā, i akiaki ia i a Stillman kia mahi tahi me ngā kura o Williamson County ki te whakatau i ana āwangawanga.
Kāore i whakautu wawe mai ngā āpiha o te tari i te Wenerei i te pātaitanga mēnā kua tae mai ētahi atu piira ki te kāwanatanga i ngā marama tata nei.
E ai ki te kaupapa here a te kawanatanga o nāianei, ko ngā ākonga, ngā mātua, ngā kaimahi rānei o tētahi rohe kura, o tētahi kura motuhake rānei, ka taea te tuku amuamu mō tā rātou kura. Mā te pire Ragan, i tautokona tahitia e te Kaitōrangapū Joey Hensley, o Hornwald, ka taea e tetahi kainoho o te rohe kura te tuku amuamu.
Engari e kī ana ngā kairīti mā tēnei huringa ka huaki te kuaha mō ngā rōpū matatika pērā i a Liberal Moms ki te amuamu ki ngā poari kura o te rohe mō ngā whakaakoranga, ngā pukapuka, ngā rauemi rānei e whakapono ana rātou he takahi i te ture, ahakoa kāore e pā tika ana ki ngā kura. He kaiako raruraru, he kura rānei.
He rerekē te Ture Kaupapa Ārai i te Ture o Tennessee o te tau 2022, e whai mana ana i tētahi komihana ā-rohe ki te aukati i ngā pukapuka mai i ngā whare pukapuka kura puta noa i te kawanatanga mēnā ka kitea e rātou "kāore i te tika mō te tau, te taumata pakeke rānei o te ākonga."
Tuhipoka a te Etita: Kua whakahoutia tēnei tuhinga kia uru atu ai tētahi kōrero mai i te tari o te Kāwana me tētahi o ngā kaiwhakapae.
