That’s too bad. I believe my NYS education was top notch — but I graduated over 50 years ago.

Well, when you had a math class, you learned math. A sample of directly out of one of the woke ‘math’ books banned in FL was posted a few weeks ago. The students were asked who Maya Angelou is, where Maya Anelou was born, etc. It may have been appropriate for an English class, or a social studies class, but it had nothing to do with math.
They had the common sense to remove the book from the schools in FL. I have no doubt they’re using it, or books like it in NY math classes. Then, when the kids have to take an Achievement Test and answer math questions, they have no clue. Why would they? They’ve been learning about Maya Angelou instead of long division.
You had New York State Regents exams years ago. A Regents diploma was even better than a NY State diploma. Not as good as a NY State former highway department worker who got free rides on the Tappan Zee Bridge and free rides on the Thruway.
