I don't trust Fox to report "the facts." I'll have to come across that
"news" at a reliable site.

Same here. Fox is "reporting" that Biden is going to ban
hamburgers. It's just right-wing bull****.

Would be great to sue the school board themselves for harming the non dumb
kids. I can really see this hurting kids. I was a bored school kid
myself. High IQ, and slow classes. Bad study habits by the time I got to
late high school and college because of the lack of challenges.

I was pretty bored with school myself. I was making As and Bs screwing
off most of the time. That was in private school. In public school I
wasn't even sure I had to show up to get good grades. I could just
thumb through the books and get 90% on the tests. They basically just
took 180 days to teach a book you could read in a day.

Reading a Calculus book in a day will not make you very good at it!

Dunno Calculus wasn't a high school course when I was there and if
Algebra 2 is being dropped in high school there I doubt they are
getting calculus either.
I did get as much out of reading the book as I got from the teacher in
Algebra. I was done with all of the required math courses by the time
I got to my junior year anyway and the only required course I had in
my senior year was english. That was mostly a writing course. (English
composition).
I didn't spend a lot of time in class. I would write my papers, turn
then in and go get a beer.

So you think Fox made up a story about the Virginia Department of Education?

I hope you're right, because if it's true, which it is, the liberals look like
dog ****.

Just read the quotes in the article from the DEMOCRATS on the school
board. You and Harry should trust them.
I suppose you could google the quotes and see someone else reporting
it.

How about Yahoo? Liberal enough for you?

Wow. I would sometimes sneak out of high school at lunchtime and walk a
long block to a local Italian deli for a first-class sub. We weren't
supposed to do that and on occasion I'd run into the assistant principal
there. He was there for the same reason, to get a sub. We'd walk back to
the school together, silently agreeing to not mention out "encounter" to
anyone.

I think it is funny that the lefties who love to talk about how great
the public school system is, will go into denial when they find out
the government is dumbing it down.
Remember it was 2 democrats who blew the whistle on this. Fox and
Yahoo were just reporting what they said.
Tell us again how important that education is. ;-)

I saw the Fox retraction on that...kinda humorous.

We didn't really have a mandatory attendance thing. If you didn't have
a class, you didn't have to be there and if you skipped a class,
nobody cared. It was your money. You still had to make grades to pass
tho.

My senior english class was just too easy to miss. The teacher would
even announce that after he finished all of the important stuff,
reviewing your writing, you could leave. The back steps were right
outside the back door of the classroom and it dumped you out in the
alley between G street and F street (NW). There was a little bar/cafe
on the corner of 18th and F, 100 yards away, that had beers for a
quarter. You could get a burger with chips for 50 cents and tip the
server/owner a quarter for a nice dollar lunch.
Alas all of that is gone now. The last time I was down there I didn't
recognize the place. EOB is the only building that is still there.
There were also nicer places to get lunch if you felt rich but I
seldom was rich.

I think that all started as a joke about Biden trying to get the
hamburger smell out of Air Force One.

The lefties care about getting votes. If education mattered, we'd see better
schools in the inner cities. Right now the only schools in DC doing decently are
the charter schools.
