[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] :shock: [quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This quote really resonates:

[quote]
In February 2021, board members agreed that they would avoid the phrase learning loss to describe what was happening to kids locked out of their classrooms. Instead they would use the words learning change. Schools being shut just meant students were “having different learning experiences than the ones we currently measure,” Gabriela López, a member of the board at the time, said. “They are learning more about their families and their cultures.” Framing this as some kind of “deficit” was wrong, the board argued.

The gaslighting on the harms of the school closures from progressives is unreal. [/quote]

Holy crap. That quote is pure insanity. [/quote]

If i didn’t know better I would have thought it came from an article of The Onion.  :shock: [/quote]

Man, you don't know how many times parents in DC have heard crap completely erasing what was going on last year.  There were/are people that argue that there is no such thing as "learning loss" -- that to posit such a thing is a right-wing effort to hurt the teachers union and kill black people.  [/quote]
