Wasn't there an explosion in new CO jobs last year? Did it go to expand the equity posse and ministry of truth?[/quote]

Yep.  Lots of new positions on the Equity Department so that they can run more tone-dead seminars on Restorative Justice.  [/quote]

I don't even care about RJ. My biggest issue is the dumbing down of public schools to pretend they've addressed the achievement gap. They haven't. This has more to do with values and goals. When I went to an HS many years ago, it was with many blue-collar white kids who also didn't prioritize education and aspired to blue-collar jobs. This is fine.  Maybe if we accept that not everyone wants the same things and help all students achieve their goals instead of projecting our values on them everyone will be better off.[/quote]

Yup. RJ, as confusing and fluff-filled as it is, is one thing. I too am more concerned about how the county is encouraging grade inflation, lowering expectations, and teaching kids that deadlines and accountability don't matter.[/quote]

To be sure, a lot of deadlines actually don't matter.[/quote]

And doing extra work instead of giving up and taking a 0 is good, not bad.

Correct the minute isn't as important as whether kids learned the material. [/quote]
