[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Voting against the party that ruined out kids by prioritizing unions, and who are working overtime to indoctrinate school chiodren into compliant little leftists is a very productive and positive way for rational citizens to handle their emotions.

Someone sounds like an extremist and it’s not the leftists lady…[/quote]

Not either PP.  But, the SB did bow to Teachers' Unions.  And, they were pushing "equity" and "anti-racism."

Wait. Is anti-racism a bad thing now?

You want to *keep* racist policies?

When math is considered racist, they’ve entirely lost the plot. [/quote]

Numbers are objective. No one is saying otherwise. (unless you want to get into different numeral systems  :lol: ).

However, there is a lot that can happen around those numbers - instruction, policies, etc. - that affect outcomes. 
 
The goal is to reduce the disparities in math outcomes. Shouldn't we do that?

[/quote]
That depends what you mean by "reduce disparities". There are 2 ways to do that. Bring the top scores down or bring the lowest scores up. 
Sadly, it seems that in the name of equity the educational and political establishment has chosen the easier path of bringing the top scores down.[/quote]

+1. And this debate is far from over.
