That is what I figured. They taught kids many many years ago. Then along came busing and academic standards soon slid some. Soon a number of whites quit high school, something unheard of through the mid 60’s. It appears after dumbing education down, teaching folks to pass tests, that educators don’t want to have their performance measured by how well they teach.
You figured right. After all, this is Seattle, and this was NOT a spontaneous uprising of students suddenly motivated by conservative ideals.
