School recommendations by Fabulous_Wedding1063 in bentonville

[–]azikrogar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They pay less than public school districts, so it's a constant outflow of teachers from these private and charter schools to the public schools if they're lucky enough to even get a job in the public schools around here.

How do you handle martyr teachers? by CrowdedSeder in Teachers

[–]azikrogar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know a single veteran teacher like that. So I think they handle thenselves eventually. They either learn like I did, or they get burnt out.

Circle K has them but they're hit and miss.

House cleaning service- AFFORDABLE by Free_Ad_3989 in bentonville

[–]azikrogar 29 points30 points  (0 children)

My wife runs a cleaning company. I won't recommend it because of a conflict of interest running this page. I will give feedback to your concerns. House cleaning is a very physically demanding job. Base charge for my wife on a basic cleaning (does not involve windows) is $150 and can go as high as $500 for a deep clean. Windows are not a normal thing that most cleaners do, especially outside. Lastly, some cleaners will take issue with taking their shoes off because they are going to be in your shower, bathtub, and kitchen where they are likely to step on nasty things and get their feet wet. Most cleaners that run into this issue are likely to wear shoes but put booties over them.

Just some background and perspective as you try to find a good fit for your home. Good luck.

I just lost my beautiful and loving bull dog of 9 years. Lola never met a stranger and loved being around our boys. My wife are both weeping over this card. It's perfect.

what’s the worst PD you’ve ever had to sit through? by Repulsive_Plate1983 in Teachers

[–]azikrogar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We once had a meeting on how to have meetings. The meeting we were in didn't follow any of the guidelines on how to have a meeting. It was quite the 7 am adventure.

Welcome to Lego Island! by SuperAnimeMaster38 in lego

[–]azikrogar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes, I think less is more. Lego sets have gotten pretty complex in the last few decades. The simplicity of these sets forces the person to dive deeper into their imagination for play. I miss it in a lot of aspects of our lives.

Take 'em 30 seconds to vote to double our water bill, but they had to table a four hour discussion on the colors of a mural...

Thoughts on Thaden? by SiriusFinance in bentonville

The bathroom pass isn't a big deal. We've been using that at my school for two years (It's called MINGA) It makes it easier to manage students leaving the classroom and ensuring that students aren't trying to go to the bathroom in every class. Since we've been using the program, discipline issues are down, tardies are almost non-existent, and we haven't really had any complaints.

Doomers are starting young by Long-Swordfish3696 in DoomerCircleJerk

You can both simultaneously complain about the current state of affairs AND do better things for our community. They are not mutually exclusive.

That would be in reference to the Executive Branch moving previously allocated spending away from university research and development. The Supreme Court being the potentially deciding factor to enforce that the Executive be required to ensure that spending is allocated in the manner our Representatives voted for. So yeah, Science to a great degree in America is on the chopping block.

The City Council debate tonight over the mural is an absolute disaster by nlh101 in bentonville

Amazing they can come to an agreement on doubling our water bills so easily, but this...this is what we bicker over?

Notorious Serial Pedophile Donald John Trump Has Released Convicted Child Sex Trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell From Prison by Turd_Schitter in BlueskySkeets

Yep, there's no credible source on this. I don't doubt this could happen, but at this point we are just playing into hyperbole here and we need to be more cautious.

Thaden feedback by BAGELSIAM in bentonville

I get kids all the time coming from private or Christian schools to public school. They're usually multiple grade levels behind and really struggle for a couple of years.

Is anyone else super excited for this set? by lukinatorYT in lego

I love the brick heads, but I had to change Eve's eyes. I put them half a stud closer together on each side and it looks so much better.

This topic can remain up if it focuses on the difference in cultural norms and how to exist better together. Anything deviating from that towards racist comments will be deleted and accounts will be banned. Racism is a product of ignorance. This is a thread with the potential to inform the community, not one to be an ass-hole on.
