[quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand how our country will continue to function successfully in 20 years time with detrimental policies like this.

Whether it’s getting rid of gifted and talented classes, or AP or generally just putting remedial learners with advanced learners “out of equity” so they don’t feel bad, but in reality it’s just forcing teachers to teach to the lowest common denominator and slowing everyone else down.

Or with little to no discipline now where you can’t suspend or expel anyone.

We won’t have anyone willing to teach. We will have a stupid, population that can’t read well, but who have been advanced through the rungs of school with inflated grades, because we now have to give everyone at least a 50% grade at the outset.

I mean how are we supposed to be competitive on the world stage when everyone will have a head full of idealistic activism and constant grievances, but little education or will to work. You’re already seeing a bunch of Gen Z “anti-work” crowd dckheads in the workplace who can’t get along with their boomer bosses and don’t show up to work to take mental health sick days.

What’s the future going to look like for the spawn of the Gen Z who have had no reason to temper their behavior in the classroom. Hopefully automation and USB will be in full swing and we can all be like the folks who ride around in chairs in Wall-E. Either way, progressives, whether it’s criminal justice reform or education policy, while well intentioned, have exacerbated this decline with their touchy feely, selective “evidence based” policies. Can’t suspend, must pass everyone to achieve an amorphous “equality of outcome” goal that’s basically just a platitude. Then they can’t read or do math because “finding an answer” is more important than the right answe. I mean what the fk.[/quote]
