[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WHAT IS WRONG WITH APS?! If I could do it all over again I would never have moved to this school district. I don't care about the all the fake controversies about CRT, trans issues, but this is ridiculous. Who is calling them out on this? [/quote]

+1.  This is ridiculous.[/quote]

+2. This is really concerning and I don’t understand at all how this helps kids (1) actually learn and challenge themselves, or (2) prepare to succeed in workplaces, where there aren’t do-overs and there are penalties for blowing through deadlines. Other than the book, which I haven’t read, is there respected research that supports this? Or does the book talk about research? I’m persuadable that this could be not terrible, but on first glance, it really worries me. And I honestly don’t understand how it helps kids who are struggling. It seems to me it would just further set them up to fail in the real world - where you have consequences for lateness, etc. [/quote]
