There’s only one solution for this…ban math. And while we are at it, ban English and make looting legal.

Just ban wrong answers. Everyone gets a trophy for trying.

They’ll just dumb down the curriculum so the kids are passing.

But I bet half or more of the students can explain why math is racist.

First vice chair of the Baltimore County Republican Central Committee Kyna "K.J." McKenzie also weighed in on the report.

" I'm shocked. I am frustrated and angry about it. As a parent, I'm a parent. I live in Baltimore City and we've been dealing with this for decades," she said. "And these results are very frustrating."

"Frustrating because we're not able to get to the root cause of what's happening, because everyone the leadership here blames it on racism. We've had Democratic leadership for decades. The people here in power look like me and everything's blamed on racism."

I feel like a genius just be the fact that I can do simple math in my head. No calculator needed.

Just add points to the scores of those that are lagging. Pretty soon all children will be above average.

Look Luther, it’s simple. You want to buy 5 hits of Meth. Each hit costs 10 dollars. How much money do you give the dealer?

I’m sure the Democrats are proud of themselves for this.

It’s Illinois. If they can sign a welfare check, they’re good to go.

One school spends $56,000 a year per student!

Give me $150,000 and I’ll give a better education for 3 students, and the state can still save another 18,000.

I bet they’ve got their pronouns on lock... unless they’re fluid, of course

All those teachers should be fired

I was at a store the other day and bought some stuff including some sale items that were buy one get one.

Typically I subconsciously add stuff and do tax and I expect my approximation to be within a few cents, but it was not.

It took the cashier and 2 managers to figure out what happened.

I said something about math being good and the teen cashier agreed and said she wished they had taught her math in school.

Interesting graph. None of the 167 students that go to the Scholastic Achievement High School can do basic math and reading. Waste of money. Teachers have been replaced by administrators who focus on big lunches and big retirements.

$20000 spent yearly on each child they are babysitting...... I’ll bet many teachers there are as illiterate as their students. As innumerate too.

I bet liberals-socialists love it as the dumber their constituents are the easier they are to control and believe about any kind of crap they serve up. Too bad for this once Great Country.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
