Will it be considered bullying when fat kids are the majority and they make fun of skinny kids?

Well, look on the bright side. Maybe this means they’re also too lazy to have sex.

holy crap
when I was a 9th grader I thought that physical fitness test was so easy it was a joke

I see a ton-o-blubbers and lazy ‘goth’ types at my kids school though...

In my day they would have been in better shape just from running for their lives if they tried to walk around looking like idiots

Change the standards, and declare that all the kids have passed.

That's what we do with academic tests, right?

Do we have figures on how many of these kids are black? Is this test racist?

Probably 80 %. Our schools are designed to destroy America from within. The curricula is cultural Marxism...and until it is completely destroyed....the textbooks burned....these results will increase. All teachers certified by the DOE are brainwashed and conditioned to get intentional results using Pavlovian/Skinner/Bloom. Schools are intentionally designed to create masses of useless idiots because of the cognitive dissonance that is intentionally put in curricula using the dialectic materialism of Hegel.

Read Eakman’s book, Cloning of the American Mind for the research which proves this....also Gato’s book, The Underground History of American Education outlines the “evolution and influence by Marxist ideology” that has ruined the American school system.

Local control of everything is needed and get rid of curricula designed by the likes of Bill Ayers and sodomite/pederast J. M. Keynes !!!!!! Their minds are a sick sewer of perversion which is contained in everything they espouse. Ideas forced into the heads of your children in preschools and K and later.

Their sick worldview becomes the worldview of your children after the indoctrination of our public schools. Doesn’t matter what mommy and daddy think....more time and honor and prestige is given to their sick worldview and the media (if your kids watch tv) will reinforce their sick worldview. These elites control our institutions.

The state has taken over both feeding (free lunch, breakfast, and dinner in some cases)and exercising kids. Why would you think the physical results would be any different than the educational results?

Not a surprise. The , french fry boats,candy wrappers, chocolate milk containers, cigarette butts and empty packs flood my properties situated next to the schools. Marlboro Reds. Based on garbage I pay to have picked up, Hip huggers forcing the display of bare midriffs with rolls of fat, do not diminish the apparent demand of the Plan B products.

I suppose one positive from bringing back the draft, is it would force these kids to get into shape.

All by design, or is it by parental neglect? Where are the days where every neighborhood had a vacant lot in which to play kick the can, or softball? Where are the separate garages to play Annie, Annie Over with? Where are the parks with swing sets and swimming pools for kids to work off their energy? more states are bringing all day kindergarten into reality. Five year old babies for the government schools to mold into mediocrity! No recess to refresh the minds and bodies to do better work! While children are exposed to insidious lies about American History, replacing hygiene class with sex education and the advantages of homosexuality!

My heart breaks for the children, for the children are our future~ Morality and a healthy belief in the living God are mocked openly by Satan’s crew as the country is taken deeper and deeper into depravity. And it has been going on for several generations!

It is time to expect storms of discipline from on high, if
the Almighty Father can still love his errant children! Yes, America has it coming to her in spades. just hold on to your hats, and fall on your knees! Home-school those amazing gifts of God if you love them! Nothing is more important than a Judeo-Christian upbringing to preserve liberty and an abundant life.

Well said!

(What does physical fitness matter when children are systematically robbed of everything that makes up a good life?)

Careful, you’re starting to venture into Fred-Phelps-Westboro territory, and as such are open to attacks from FR’s knee-jerk shoot-the-messenger squad.
