forcing you to think logically, mathematics are important. accelerated are important to physics. S.T.E.M.
its hard to beat a good education, but sometimes you can do it.
a mind is a terrible thing to waste.

Reason involves three factors: the senses, logic, and concepts. The metaphysical basis of logic (and the rules of deduction) was identified by Aristotle. The validity of the senses was established by Aristotle, elaborated by Thomas Aquinas, and fully clarified by Ayn Rand.

“National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM)”
For those who may not know, this is the bunch who effectively destroyed math education in the US with their “Everyday Math” series, which even math PhD’s could not figure out what the hell they were doing, other than knowing it wasn’t math. For starters, they had kids using calculators in Kindergarten and being told there really is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ answers.
Needless to say, it was universally adopted in the US, and just as needless to say, most ‘conservative’ parents didn’t lift a finger to protect their kids from it.

Yep, the dystopian future of “Harrison Bergeron” is where education is headed.

Eliminating accelerated math classes in high school is just the first step on the road to an education disasterIt's not the first step. It's rather near the last.
The first step was almost a lifetime ago.

The were many steps, but I believe the most damaging was Carter’s creation of the Department of Education.

Of course they won’t.

Dumb down American education, then import foreign immigrants because they are “more intelligent”.

forcing you to think logically... That is what the leftists are against: logical thinking. They want the vast herd to be swayed by emotions rather than guided by critical thinking.
Otherwise, the citizenry never accept that a man can change into a woman, white people are born racists, and numerous other insanities that are progressively rotting American's foundations.

We are already in the midst of an education disaster. US education institutions are political indoctrination centers, nothing more.

Members of public school boards that eliminate accelerated math classes in high schools are giving aid and comfort to the enemies of the United States.
