[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The lack of "Dear colleague..." letters demanding that schools e.g. eliminate all disciplinary measures may work to keep both teachers and students in the public system.[/quote]

The PP is referring back to President Obama’s “Dear colleagues,” letter, which greatly reduced or eliminate suspension or expulsion of public school students for destruction of school property, assault, threats, theft, robbery,  etc.

Obama believes school discipline is racist.[/quote]

True.

Here is some background:

Wow. I had no idea about this. I’ve always wondered what caused this complete turnaround in the discipline (or lack thereof) in schools. From reading DCUM I assumed that the entire problem was about “disabilities” since they apparently consider even things like ODD to be a disability now. But that letter explains a lot. They need to rescind it ASAP.[/quote]

Yes, everything wrong with education today can be blamed on an Obama directive that was repealed 11 years and two presidents ago.[/quote]
