[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DeSantis/FL are not only going after AP courses, they're also looking at a "classical and Christian" alternative to the SAT.

No APs will be a setback for many students.  They will be far behind their out-of-state peers.  [b]Also, if he goes forward with an "alternative to the SAT" that will HUGELY limit the number of colleges and universities those kids can attend.

I feel particularly bad for teenage Floridian girls right now - invasive inquiries about their menstrual cycles, severe restrictions put on their reproductive health, and now having their collegiate future stripped away from them.  It's like Florida is sliding straight into a dystopian hellscape right out of the Handmaid's Tale[/b].[/quote]

You are so uninformed, pp.  Find other sources.  Find out what DeSantis actually said and what he wants to do.  [/quote]

+1
The blatant misinformation (lies) the PP is promoting are just gross.  It's beyond even the usual hyperbole at this point.  Just straight up lies that the left eats up without bothering to fact check.  [/quote]

You're gross and are promoting blatant misinformation (lies).

Again

DeSantis is in fact proposing getting rid of all things College Board. https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/education/article272474953.html

Dual enrollment still requires a placement test (PSAT etc) and there are only three participating universities in the country doing Florida dual enrollment. And, dual enrollment only covers around 16% of graduating Florida seniors in a given year.  [/quote]

The gross and blatant misinformation being referenced is conveninently bolded for you.  No one's arguing that DeSantis has proposed doing away with AP classes - as many public and private schools have already done.  Their kids have no issues with college acceptances (but then, you know that).  Their "collegiate future" has hardly been "stripped away from them."   :roll:  :roll:

The misinformation refers to your idiotic claim that DeSantis had anything to do with the menstrual issue - that was a state committee that didn't involve him and in fact, has not gone through.

Oh, and your "dystopian hellscape" was a nice hyperbolic touch, but pretty hackneyed among your set.  Be more original.[/quote]

LOL yeah right - DeSantis is suddenly asserting himself to take more control of the schools after they backed down on the menstrual cycle thing..

You know your Tampa Bay news is behind a firewall, right?  No one can read it without a subscription.  That's probably by design on your part.[/quote]
