I feel those on the board are screwed no matter what they do. If they try to enforce some standards…the thugs will riot, call them racist and sue. If they don’t then they knowingly graduate students who will be a drag on society. Ugly situation.

They’ll be accepted right into the Oregon’s top-tier universities - b/c no ACT or SAT required.
If they’re POCs, they’ll get preference over far more qualified students who CAN read, write and compute.

You only need to know four words to graduate. Those begin with “n”, “h”, “b” and “f”. You now have an unabridged Webster’s Ghetto Dictionary.

Sounds like Oregon isn’t going to be a hotbed of success and productivity, for years to come.

Frederick Douglass was a slave who taught himself to read and write. In his 1848 "Letter to Thomas Auld": Douglass denounced his former slaveholder for leaving Douglass's family illiterate:
Your wickedness and cruelty committed in this respect on your fellow-creatures, are greater than all the stripes you have laid upon my back, or theirs. It is an outrage upon the soul—a war upon the immortal spirit, and one for which you must give account at the bar of our common Father and Creator.

It is. Maybe someone can explain to me how it is not racist.

“But leaders at the Oregon Department of Education and members of the state school board said requiring all students to pass one of several standardized tests or create an in-depth assignment their teacher judged as meeting state standards was a harmful hurdle for historically marginalized students, a misuse of state tests and did not translate to meaningful improvements in students’ post high school success.”
They really do hate the whole idea of merit and helping students achieve academic success. Fair enough, at least they are honest. My response is this,
If higher standards do not translate to meaningful improvement it sure cannot be argued that lower standards do so. In that case why have them in school at all once they reach an age where they can be legally employed?

The South did indeed rise again. Those sneaky Southerners have found a new way to keep the minority population uneducated. Works like a charm. Minorities need to lay down the law with their schools.

Idiots....what greater harm could they do to students of color than to turn them out illiterate and ignorant. Their schools will become failure factories

It’s harmful to an individual to try to master any of the basics.

ended up having to take intensive senior-year writing and math classes to prove they deserved a diploma. That denied those students the opportunity to take an elective, despite the lack of evidence the extra academic work helped them in the workplace or at college, they said.
In what possible way would an elective fun class help students better than improving their terrible knowledge in math or reading?
Maybe if standards and education were improved at the lower grade levels, the students would already be smarter and not have to take remedial addition. Then they could take that all-important underwater basket-weaving intro!

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
