    Are our education standards failing our children? Join us on this eye-opening episode of the Official Be Better Podcast as we delve into the alarming decline in educational quality in the United States. From the impact of the pandemic on student learning to the contentious move away from homework, we examine how these shifts are leaving students unprepared for real-world responsibilities. With insights from the Pew Research Center and firsthand experiences, we also shed light on the disparities between public and private school education, the misallocation of federal funds, and the urgent call for increased teacher salaries.

    Remember the days when education was more than just screens? We reflect on the significance of September 11th in our educational system, discussing the collective trauma and unity experienced during those tragic times. Highlighting the frustrations with modern screen-based learning, we argue for the importance of traditional methods and historical awareness. From political influences on education policies to the need for exposing students to real-life challenges, we underscore the critical role of resilience and preparedness in shaping future generations.

    As we navigate the complexities of mental health within education, our special guest Jacque Stahl shares personal experiences with ADHD, illustrating the struggles and strategies for maintaining focus and coping with anxiety. We debate the value of formal education versus real-world experience, drawing examples from successful figures who defied the norm. The conversation wraps up with a look at the evolution of educational tools and the rising costs of education, questioning whether the system is truly serving its purpose. Don’t miss this thought-provoking episode packed with insights and practical advice for educators, parents, and policymakers alike.
