[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The new republican play book (the one promoted by the current US sec. of Education and her family --- DeVos/AMWAY kooks) is all about minimizing public education and maximizing religious-based private education. So, it makes sense to make people afraid of their public schools (i.e. require the schools to notify all parents if any kid has a drug-related overdose, even if it happens away from the school), and make parents fear other schools by creating nonsensical "standards" that label many schools as "failing." The only reasonable response when you are told your kid's school is a disaster -- is to try to get them into some other "better" school -- which is where they step in with state-funded vouchers! [/quote] This 1000%. Exhibit A is the shifting pass cut scores for the SOLs. Raising the cut scores will mean more kids will "fail" the SOL and make it appear that public schools in VA are not good for your kid. Cue the private schools with funding/vouchers that should go to public schools. Those same private schools that can choose which kids they want and kick out at any point. Follow the money as the dismantling of public education happens before your very eyes.[/quote] If this was ever the plan, I think it's now over. Dems just swept the entire state in the last election.[/quote]
