My dd had a similar activity and was told she was privileged for having two married parents and there always being food on the table.[b] That’s not privileged! [/b]There should be basic things that parents provide for their kids.

I think schools should meet kids where they are. I hope that the very smartest are being provided with the classes and support they need too. We need the next generation of entrepreneurs, doctors, scientists and top engineers. Instead we have a dumbed down curriculum where no one is learning well. [/quote]

You don’t like the label or you don’t like the concept?

[b]Our schools aren’t “dumbed down”. [/b] :roll:

Easy for you to say from the ground level. [/quote]

Easy for anyone to say who sees the curriculum available to our kids.

Looking at actual facts, not propaganda.

What, you mean the one where they don't learn multiplication until 3rd grade? The one where they don't learn 3D shapes until second grade? The one where they are told that "good readers guess" in kindergarten? That actual curriculum?[/quote]

Whole reading sucks and is already being phased out. That wasn’t an “equity” decision- just a bad one.

Learning multiplication in 3rd has been the standard for decades.
