Fucking Racist

I see nothing wrong with leveling classes. It's just a fact. Take the brainiacs and let them proceed at a faster pace, those in the middle can do their thing and those that are struggling should have their own class so they can get the help they need and proceed at a slower pace.

No child left behind is bullshit.

I have a friend and one of her kids is doing just ok in school. She's FINE with it. There are other choices. Plumbers, electricians, delivering the damn mail... Give those kids the best education that you can but give them vocational education opportunities too.

There are so many things they could be doing but they're stuck in a time warp and are politically correct. It's not the 19^th century any longer. Farmers don't need the kids to help with the damn crops. We have to pay the bonds on the schools 365 days and they run the airconditioner all summer anyway so all year school should exist; four semesters, pick three.

Dividing kids by age was done because there were only a few teachers. Instead they should be divided by their own progress. Instead of twelve grades there should be at least 48 in each subject. Material must be mastered before they are moved up to the next grade. You aren't going to get calculus if geometry escaped you so why move them up.

Every kid should get out of school with a basic knowledge of almost everything. A high school diploma should be a kid can think his way out of a paper bag rather than he can spell "paper bag" if given enough tries or he can remember to put the heavy things at the bottom of paper bags.
