Sounds like most of this is just common sense.
The so-called “public” school system needs to be dismantled from top to bottom. Permanently.
The left, AINOs and other assorted woke imbeciles cannot, and will not, let this continue, especially if publicly funded.
They’ll force their moronic BS on em via of the accreditation process. In order to maintain or become an accredited institution, they’ll insist on having a certain amount of social justice warrior classes to be completed.
They’ve used this method to force their BS on other publicly-funded STEM programs at universities across the nation.
The bassturds are just pure evil, and in a sane world, would be dealt with accordingly.
Some very bright students have poor grades; but this is sometimes the result of their being extremely bored, and having “tuned out” of the stifling “Ding-Dong School” grinding atmosphere.
I would hope the admissions process for these accelerated schools make provision for this, and don’t rule out the occasional maverick or misfit kid with poor grades and a less than stellar “fit” to Standards; but with a Truly Brilliant Mind and the capacity for excellence — given a Real Challenge, and a clear field for effectiveness.
Many of history’s greatest thinkers were poor students by the convenional measures of the day. It would be a shame to lose them to credentialism.
The basic goal should be to allow ANY student to learn as much as he/she is capable of learning, at the time that is best for the student; and, if that results in some students or groups learning more than others, that’s not a problem. Everyone would benefit from this, and people nowadays are not prone to look down on slow learners. This is far from what we have now.
This is easy to fix. Just make the woke courses non-essential in pursuit of a degreed major, and lower the value of certain departments to an associate degree.
The mistake is arguing with the barbarians at all. Just continue to educate based on merit and tell the SJWs to FO.
“They have adopted a parental bill of rights that, among other things, grants parents the right to review state assessment results, know the nature and purpose of clubs and activities at the school, inspect instructional materials, exempt their children from immunization, and opt their children out of instruction involving sexuality.”
Sounds like parents are very involved. You have to have parents who value education, also.
Sounds good.......but, I don’t know, all the pictures were of obviously privileged racist white kids....won’t fly for long under the Commies radar.
