> If you kick out the problematic students, the only students you have left are easy to teach non-problematic students.

Maybe the negative effects of having problematic students is enough that its a worthwhile endeavor? By Middle school or high school "problematic students" involves people that not only are noisy and disruptive in class, but people that deal drugs, rob people, steal, join gangs, bring weapons to school. Just calling them problematic is really underselling the situation. And the effects of a student that routinely swears at a teacher and causes fights disrupts a large number of students preventing them from learning things.

Wow they sound really undesirable. I wonder if there's some place you could concentrate such people to reduce their impact? Maybe some sort of camp, idk.

In all seriousness once you start thinking of huge swathes of children as a problem in this way, the "solutions" become clear and atrocious. You have to find another path sorry.

When the actual fix (improving the lives, discipline, and care provided by their parents) is untenable, other lower effort solutions start to become more attractive. It's unreasonable to expect schools to correct for a poor upbringing.

I’m happy to hear that you’ve agreed to teach them all as the alternative path. Have fun!

It's funny you think it's preposterous that I might. Buddy we're not all sucking down six figures to write ad company spyware.
