Los Angeles Unified publicly admits that 2/3rds to 3/4ths of the High School Graduates can NOT read or write above the 2nd grade level and can’t do math above the 3rd grade level.

This isn’t really about protecting students from discouragement - its all about protecting bloated, woke, useless government educrats from judgement and responsibility.
