Thanks for the stats Jim. The Dept. of Education was a Trojan Horse to destroy American education. Shut it down. Public schools across the country need to be denied federal funds if they want to continue stupidity and perversion.
But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them. But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister: And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all. For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
"Leaders" seem to see children only as fodder for the burgeoning s x industry. Ed system is a giant g r o o m i n g machine. Ultimate goal is to d e s t r o y the US.
The destruction of childhood education began by turning over public duration to the national government. Abolish the Department of Education and bring it back locally, where it once was!
Come on people, the education system has always gotten the short end of the stick. Stop acting like this something that just started with a certain administration. I keep telling you all not to get caught up in the distractions; we better be concern about the subtle things that we are looking at and yet is not seeing. Our spiritual eyes need to be clearer.
I didn't even think test scores could get lower than they were post-lockdown. The way we've failed the children of this nation is criminal. Even worse, we're the architects of our own eventual downfall if drastic measures aren't taken.
I'm a retired public school teacher (for 7 years now), and I recommend to anyone for whom it's possible to find an excellent private school, preferably one with Christian principles. Maybe Ms. McMahon can start a whole new era of good public education.
A psychological study was performed. No one teaches you. You teach yourself. This makes it easy to see why so many student do poorly in school but can be quite successful professionally.
All studies have shown that it’s the Mom and Dad who influence the children. The children would be successful wherever they go. The school plays little part. But for signaling who is in the so-called “elite” class.
I studied engineering. Most of the teachers in my high school were dumber than I was allowed to be in college. Worked with a rocket scientist (literally). She said she only spent 2 hours a day home schooling her children. This is one of the reasons for DEI (which is only affirmative action rebranded) and other similar programs - it’s to interfere with home schooling, which is much more effective.
Read Thomas Sowell’s Inside American Education. Many teachers are horrible students themselves. A typical teacher graduates in the bottom 25% of their college class. I’m sure today’s grade inflation hides that. Yale got caught with a law school class where 80% graduated with honors. Sowell also says the education major requirements are so ridiculous that they usually drive smart kids out of the major.
Do some research. The U.S. education system is based on the Prussian model, which was designed to make the student subservient to the government and to follow orders. They make good soldiers.
I home educated my children. They learned to LOVE to learn and be curious. They learned how to LEARN, asked questions, and also to love others. I was a public school teacher and knew that was not what I wanted for my children. Classical education- trivium, well trained mind and Charlotte Mason inspired our homeschool.

Elected dictators all of them

Excellent read, Jim. Linking it today @https://nothingnewunderthesun2016.com/

Absolutely mind boggling. Only God can fix this mess.
What has been done to our children is egregious. The damage has been done, and it was all deliberate.
I didn't even think test scores could get lower than they were post-lockdown. The way we've failed the children of this nation is criminal. Even worse, we're the architects of our own eventual downfall if drastic measures aren't taken.
Most of that didn’t happen. The money went elsewhere. Likely into someone’s pocket.

Recommend home schooling.
