So at my school you take a pre test and post test for the corse At the end , they take your grade for overall growth The grades go from 65, 85, 95 Better growth = higher grade So pretty much you could make a 0 on the pre test and like 60 on post try and your grade for your growth is 95 Literally the dumbest thing ever

The entry grades are falling. Soon you could enter college if you know how to spell pencil.

"The entry grades are falling. Soon you could enter college if you know how to spell pencil." I mean we're dumbing down the entire education system for people who have no chance at life anyway

Remember when the motto was "Give children a head start" Now it's "Never leave a child behind" Some one's losing frigging ground.

You either leave a few behind and have many who excel or you leave nobody behind and have fewer who excel.
