Fighter jets needed to be built, quit your whining!

Ah, the portables. Always either hotter than heck in summer, or colder than the Arctic in winter.

Why waste money on schools when we can make more jet fighters

Portables ...i remember those from high school

Three years of four during elementary school I was in those ugly black containers. And my little brother is now in the wonderful new school building 🙂

We called them "portables" where I lived. Never once saw them being ported anywhere.

Got some of these at work as well. They're historic landmarks at this point.

The US has repeatedly failed to invest in education, so it's not surprising we have so many flat-earthers, anti-vaxxers, conspiracy theorists, and flat-out nitwits. But we still can count to one, as in the US is #1.

You know the trailer is going to be there for a while went ramps are added🙄

Had these in the late 80s during junior high in MN. Walking to class and back in -40 windchill and too cool to put on a coat. I guess we did have all that Aquanet hairspray, prob worked just as well as a hat.

Some schools still have them

My daughter's elementary school just took their's down after two extensions and about 40 years.

Most modern Architecture is now 'temporary" :-(

YEP!

Not when I was in school but with my kids ya.

A portable!

these are literally what like 2/3 of my classes are in

i remember in kindergarten outside my elementary school they had these. They’re still there YEARS LATER

This is still a thing. Our high school just added 2 more.

Yes!

I taught in a portable w/ 34 (smelly) 6th graders plus their damn band instruments for about 10 years before the new addition was finished. Fond memories.

In the winter, it was freezing and there was no way to keep the place hot. In the summer, it was like sitting in a furnace. The acoustics were so awful that you could literally hear someone scraping their chair on the floor from the next room, let alone someone raising their voice.

Remember them from school and military.

I drive by my old high school sometimes. It was sold to some city agency about 10 years ago and guess what? The portables that were there in the 80’s are still being used.

One of them I taught in had everyone run the gauntlet past the garbage dumpsters and wasp nests just to make it to class. Was just ready to give them all A's for showing up!

My grade six class got in trouble first week of school cuz there was a fire alarm and when we went outside some of the boys had stashed there dad's nudey mags under the portable steps on summer break, so they started passing them around. Teacher was none to pleased when he realized

Oh yes. Me in 3. grade i the -70s. It burnt down i 2016 AND WAS REBUILD! Hundige-Li...5419e0.jpg

What do you mean "Were"? They still are!

We still have them at my school. I swear the floors are going to fall out though.

Staten Island Community College

"Remember"? I work in one of those.

My mom worked out of one of those for most of her 35 year teaching career.

Remembers? Most are still there...

Whoa! This was the Driver's Ed contraption in 1978!

My school had some "temporary" fast build ytong class rooms with next to no isolations. They were so bad that everyone else who bought them demolished them as soon as possible. Only our school wasn't quick enough. So the junk got labeled as architectural heritage and the school isn't able to get rid of them anymore.

Was in one for grade 5. It was great. We were actually really good friends. We were away from what we already realized was a bunch of BS going on in the school. We had a great teacher who appreciated and promoted more individual learning according to what each kid, or group of kids took a real interest in. We were all disappointed to have to move into a classroom in the school for grade 6. Boring conventional learning. This was back in 1968. Teacher was ahead of his time.

Never seen those
