網(wǎng)友討論：美國(guó)公立學(xué)校為何破產(chǎn)？為何會(huì)接連倒閉，影響面有多大？
Why Public Schools Are Going Broke In The U.S.
譯文簡(jiǎn)介
隨著聯(lián)邦疫情救助資金的耗盡和入學(xué)人數(shù)的持續(xù)下降，美國(guó)的公立學(xué)校正面臨著嚴(yán)重的預(yù)算危機(jī)。
正文翻譯
U. S. public schools are facing a major budget crunch as federal pandemic relief money runs out and enrollment numbers continue to drop. Many districts added staff during the Covid era to address urgent needs, but with fewer students and no extra funding, those positions are no longer sustainable. Watch the video above to learn why school systems are being forced to cut staff and what that means for students and communities.
隨著聯(lián)邦疫情救助資金的耗盡和入學(xué)人數(shù)的持續(xù)下降，美國(guó)的公立學(xué)校正面臨著嚴(yán)重的預(yù)算危機(jī)。在疫情期間，許多學(xué)區(qū)增加了員工以應(yīng)對(duì)緊急需求，但由于學(xué)生人數(shù)減少且沒(méi)有額外資金，這些職位已不再可持續(xù)。觀看上面的影片，了解為什么學(xué)校系統(tǒng)被迫裁減員工，這對(duì)學(xué)生和社區(qū)意味著什么。

I work in a school district.
The problem is the overpaid admins outnumbering the number of custodians, bus drivers, nutrition services.
95% of the “administration” have never set foot in a class room. I wish this was an exaggeration.
我在一個(gè)學(xué)區(qū)工作。
問(wèn)題是，薪水過(guò)高的管理人員數(shù)量超過(guò)了清潔工、巴士司機(jī)、營(yíng)養(yǎng)服務(wù)人員的數(shù)量。
95%的“行政人員”從未踏進(jìn)過(guò)課堂。我希望這只是夸張。

Basically, it's poor planning & poor judgement by a majority of those in charge. So, business as usual in America. A land where common sense is thrown out & will get you terminated.
基本上，這是大多數(shù)負(fù)責(zé)人糟糕的規(guī)劃和判斷。因此，美國(guó)的商業(yè)模式一如既往。一個(gè)常識(shí)被拋棄的國(guó)家，這樣的常識(shí)會(huì)讓你被解雇。
I can only imagine what it was like back when the country invested in education. Now there's less funding each year for schools and more tax cuts for the extremely rich. And more tax cuts. Then more tax cuts. And then more.
我只能想象那個(gè)國(guó)家曾經(jīng)投資教育時(shí)的情況?，F(xiàn)在，學(xué)校的資金每年都在減少，而對(duì)富人則是越來(lái)越多的減稅。然后更多的減稅，再然后更多。
How is the pension situation looking in Pasadena and other districts? Lots of state and local governments will pay a fortune for contracted services and admins just to avoid filling pension eligible positions.
帕薩迪納和其他學(xué)區(qū)的退休金狀況如何？許多州和地方政府會(huì)支付巨額費(fèi)用給合同服務(wù)和管理人員，只為了避免填補(bǔ)符合退休金資格的職位。
"Walk back pay raises"? You don't get to do that. Why even say that? That is why teachers are quitting. I love seeing teachers quit. I wish more would. If our education is ever to improve, we'll need a real teacher shortage ( and a few other requirements).
Americans do not care about their kids at all! If we REALLY valued our children, we'd fund education.
“撤回加薪”？你不能這么做。為什么要這么說(shuō)？這就是教師辭職的原因。我喜歡看到教師辭職。我希望更多的教師辭職。如果我們的教育要改善，我們就需要真正的教師短缺（以及一些其他條件）。美國(guó)人根本不關(guān)心自己的孩子！如果我們真心珍視我們的孩子，我們就會(huì)資助教育。
Public schools should be overflowing with money as high as property tax is here in texas ....its the highest line item on my bill
公立學(xué)校應(yīng)該充滿(mǎn)資金，特別是在德州這里，財(cái)產(chǎn)稅這么高……這是我賬單上最高的一項(xiàng)費(fèi)用。
They need to stop wasting money on stuff they don't need and overpaid staff that doesn't pull their own weight.
他們需要停止浪費(fèi)不必要的資金，尤其是在那些沒(méi)有做出貢獻(xiàn)的高薪員工身上。
Why is enrollment down? Expect multiple factors…. one is a waste of funds from “COVID”, administrative spending, outdated funding calculations , and a diminished confidence in the value of public education. Equation for disaster.
為什么入學(xué)人數(shù)下降？原因有很多……其中之一是“疫情”期間的資金浪費(fèi)、行政開(kāi)支、過(guò)時(shí)的資金計(jì)算方法，以及對(duì)公立教育價(jià)值的信任降低。這是災(zāi)難的方程式。
Start by getting rid of those overpaid "administrators" who do nothing, then give that money back to the teachers.
從那些不做事的高薪“管理員”開(kāi)始，然后把那些錢(qián)返還給老師。
Too much administrators, not enough actual teachers.
Restructure the whole system now.
管理員太多，真正的教師太少?，F(xiàn)在就重組整個(gè)系統(tǒng)。
It's not a "budget cut". It was temporary money to deal with a temporary problem... which wasn't used properly. If "pandemic" staff was needed, they shouldn't have been hired as full time staff, but rather as contracted workers on a fixed term contract
這不是“預(yù)算削減”。那是應(yīng)對(duì)臨時(shí)問(wèn)題的臨時(shí)資金……但沒(méi)有被正確使用。如果“疫情”期間需要的員工，應(yīng)該聘用臨時(shí)工，而不是聘用全職員工。
I worked at a middle/high school with an enrollment of approximately 600 students. The school had a principal and three assistant principals with a combined salary of more than $500,000. Meanwhile the chemistry lab was extremely dangerous and an acident waiting to happen. When I asked for repairs they cried poor.
我曾在一所大約有600名學(xué)生的中學(xué)/高中工作。學(xué)校有一位校長(zhǎng)和三位副校長(zhǎng)，他們的總薪水超過(guò)50萬(wàn)美元。而與此同時(shí)，化學(xué)實(shí)驗(yàn)室極其危險(xiǎn)，隨時(shí)可能發(fā)生事故。當(dāng)我要求修理時(shí)，他們卻說(shuō)資金不足。
Fire a minimum of half the overpaid Administrators and hire more quality teachers. Hold parents accountable for their children's continued education at home and their behaviors at school so parenting duties don't fall on those teachers.
解雇一半以上的高薪管理員，雇更多優(yōu)秀的教師。讓家長(zhǎng)對(duì)孩子的持續(xù)教育和在校行為負(fù)責(zé)，這樣父母的責(zé)任就不會(huì)落在教師身上。
Too many Administrators, focus on Athletics, and not paying teachers STEM more! Good luck finding a HS Physics teacher or Computer Science teacher with declining college students studying Education. Grants are not permanent fixes
管理員太多，過(guò)于注重體育，沒(méi)把錢(qián)投入到STEM（科學(xué)、技術(shù)、工程、數(shù)學(xué)）教育上！隨著選擇教育專(zhuān)業(yè)的大學(xué)生減少，找到一位高中物理或計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)老師越來(lái)越難。資助不是長(zhǎng)期解決方案。
in the 90's there was only 4-5 admins in my school, now the same school has around 40 admins.
90年代我的學(xué)校只有4-5位管理員，現(xiàn)在同一所學(xué)校有大約40位管理員。
The problem has and will always be administration staff. They are too many of them, they have ridiculous salaries (some earn more than public universities), do not know what they are doing at all. You only need a few of them to run budget and make sure money is paid out.
Money should always go to teachers, counselors, bus drivers and janitors. They are the ones that interact with the students everyday and actually run the school. Everyone else is support staff and its just bloated, poorly mismanaged and expensive. If that isn't fix, no amount of money or student enrollment will make any difference.
問(wèn)題始終是行政人員。人數(shù)太多，薪水過(guò)高（有些人的薪水甚至超過(guò)了公立大學(xué)的水平），而且他們完全不知道自己在做什么。管理預(yù)算和確保款項(xiàng)支付的管理員就夠了。資金應(yīng)該優(yōu)先投入到教師、輔導(dǎo)員、公交車(chē)司機(jī)和清潔工身上。因?yàn)樗麄兠刻炫c學(xué)生互動(dòng)，才真正運(yùn)營(yíng)著學(xué)校。其他人只是支持人員，系統(tǒng)臃腫、管理不善且開(kāi)銷(xiāo)巨大。如果這個(gè)問(wèn)題不解決，任何金額的資金或?qū)W生注冊(cè)人數(shù)都無(wú)法改變現(xiàn)狀。
Bad healthcare and a bad education system what can possibly go wrong
糟糕的醫(yī)療和糟糕的教育系統(tǒng)，能有什么可能出錯(cuò)的呢？
This is why only 40% of the kids can do mathematics because our teachers and administration don’t even know how to budget their own balance.

Most people who graduated in 1980 went to schools that now have half the number of students but 4 times the staff as before.
大多數(shù)1980年畢業(yè)的人上的是如今學(xué)生人數(shù)只有原來(lái)一半，但工作人員卻是原來(lái)四倍的學(xué)校。
School admins need to be held accountable. Knowing the funds were temporary they moved forward with their spending. This in effort to pad their resumes with “accomplishments” completed between 2020-2024.
學(xué)校管理人員需要負(fù)責(zé)任。明知資金是暫時(shí)的，他們還是繼續(xù)推進(jìn)開(kāi)支。這樣做是為了在2020到2024年之間為自己的簡(jiǎn)歷增加一些“成就”。

We are blessed to be able to homeschool, but the school system gets our tax dollars and don't have our child in school to spend it on.

A major issue is that students today need so many more services than they used to: mental health, food, medicine, academic intervention, etc. this means rising overhead costs for schools to meet these needs for a shrinking population. I work at a school where maybe 10 kids in the entire building (about 600 kids) are at grade level for math. We NEED math intervention desperately to get these kids the knowledge and skills they need in the workforce - even trade schools! Losing the funding means that we cannot hire anyone for those positions and have to let go of non-core staff; all of which comes back and means that the kids do not get an education.
一個(gè)主要問(wèn)題是，現(xiàn)在的學(xué)生需要的服務(wù)比以前多得多：心理健康、食物、藥物、學(xué)業(yè)干預(yù)等等。這意味著學(xué)校為了滿(mǎn)足這些需求的開(kāi)銷(xiāo)不斷增加，而人口卻在減少。我在一所學(xué)校工作，整棟樓里大約600個(gè)孩子，只有大約10個(gè)孩子的數(shù)學(xué)成績(jī)達(dá)到年級(jí)水平。我們迫切需要數(shù)學(xué)干預(yù)，幫助這些孩子獲得他們進(jìn)入職場(chǎng)所需的知識(shí)和技能——即使是職業(yè)學(xué)校！資金減少意味著我們無(wú)法聘請(qǐng)相關(guān)人員，只能解雇非核心員工；所有這些都會(huì)影響孩子們的教育。

Schools are as understaffed as they've ever been with actual teachers, paraprofessionals, aids, bus drivers, and other on -the-ground, student-facing staff. Administration is bloated and has no background in child development at all and makes decisions based on optics instead of long term, child-centered, educational goals. What could possibly be the matter, here?
學(xué)校在實(shí)際教師、助教、輔導(dǎo)員、公交車(chē)司機(jī)以及其他直接面對(duì)學(xué)生的員工方面的人員短缺達(dá)到了前所未有的程度。管理層臃腫，根本沒(méi)有兒童發(fā)展背景，做決策時(shí)更多考慮的是外部形象，而不是長(zhǎng)期的、以?xún)和癁橹行牡慕逃繕?biāo)。問(wèn)題到底出在哪里呢？
School districts spend millions per year on educational consultants. School board members in most states are allowed to work for these educational consultants.
And most educational consultants are multi state corporations or even international
學(xué)區(qū)每年花費(fèi)數(shù)百萬(wàn)美元請(qǐng)教育顧問(wèn)。在大多數(shù)州，學(xué)區(qū)董事會(huì)成員被允許為這些教育顧問(wèn)工作。大多數(shù)教育顧問(wèn)公司都是跨州甚至國(guó)際性的。
Permanent programs and staffing with limited funds. Also, mismanagement of the funds created the issues in my city. Now we've been hit up for over $300 million additional property tax levies in the last 5 years.
在資金有限的情況下，保持長(zhǎng)期的項(xiàng)目和人員配置。此外，資金的管理不當(dāng)導(dǎo)致了我們城市的問(wèn)題?，F(xiàn)在我們已經(jīng)在過(guò)去5年中為了額外的3億美元財(cái)產(chǎn)稅征收而被迫接受。
In texas, out of state billionaires donated money to state republicans to divert tax funds from public schools to private ones.
This video mention anything like that?
在德州，外州的億萬(wàn)富翁向州內(nèi)的共和黨捐款，將稅收資金從公立學(xué)校轉(zhuǎn)移到私立學(xué)校。這個(gè)視頻提到過(guò)類(lèi)似的事情嗎？
Of course, normal families are switching to private or homeschooling or moving out of states like California and New York.
當(dāng)然，正常的家庭正在轉(zhuǎn)向私立學(xué)?；蚣彝ソ逃?，或者搬出像加利福尼亞和紐約這樣的州。
I feel like whoever made the decisions to spend the extra money instead of managing it better should be fired first.
我覺(jué)得那些決定花費(fèi)額外資金而不是更好地管理資金的人應(yīng)該先被解雇。
Same thing with higher education. It's government handouts, people hiring more people, as the budget goes up up up. No thought about reducing costs.
高等教育也是一樣。政府的補(bǔ)助金，雇傭更多人，預(yù)算越來(lái)越高。根本沒(méi)有考慮削減成本。
Too much staff, but a shortage of teachers. Does excess staff include teachers? If not, what do they do? In recent years, many administrative positions were added that may have been justified by increasing enrollments, but now, because enrollments are declining, they are not needed, but once an organization has become accustomed to diluting responsibilities, it is hard to change. The same situation exists in higher education where much of the teaching has been relegated to part-time adjunct faculty who are paid about half of what full time faculty are paid to teach even though they are required to have the same qualifications, and who have few or no benefits. The savings have gone to increasing administrative staff with diluted responsibilities.
員工太多，但教師短缺。多余的員工包括教師嗎？如果不是，那他們做什么？近年來(lái)，增加了許多行政職位，這些職位可能是由于入學(xué)人數(shù)的增加而設(shè)立的，但現(xiàn)在由于入學(xué)人數(shù)下降，這些職位變得不再需要。然而，一旦一個(gè)組織習(xí)慣了分散責(zé)任，就很難改變。高等教育也存在同樣的情況，很多教學(xué)工作已經(jīng)委托給兼職的外聘教師，這些教師的薪酬是全職教師的一半，盡管他們需要擁有相同的資格，并且?guī)缀鯖](méi)有任何福利。這些節(jié)省下來(lái)的資金卻被用來(lái)增加行政人員，責(zé)任變得更加分散。

It's very wild that most of the people talking in this are doing everything except discussing the actual cost and like one individual stated that there was temporary funding that then expired and The school did not remove that expenditure or cancel it.
很奇怪，幾乎所有討論這個(gè)問(wèn)題的人都在討論其他問(wèn)題，除了實(shí)際的成本問(wèn)題，就像有個(gè)人提到過(guò)的那樣，曾有臨時(shí)資金支持，但資金到期后，學(xué)校并沒(méi)有取消這些開(kāi)支。
No wonder the kids who graduate from here know nothing about planning or Budgeting.
難怪這里畢業(yè)的孩子什么都不懂規(guī)劃或預(yù)算。
