Notice the bar for education in America lowered? notice we are slowly lowering on the charts? i thought education got better over time, not worse. what do you think this is? worse schools? worse teachers? less effort?
Well it isnt really any of those, for if you get into the right classes you recieve the proper education, but, thanks to the "no child left behind" law, schools must push ahead students that cannot handle the new classes, putting unprepared men and women into the working world.
I really think they should keep back students who cant even handle their current grade level. We already know they will fail the next grade, why test it? If a kid can't handly 8th grade year, how could they handle freshman year? Really i dont know, and I doubt i ever will. But i know these students will probably feel better about themselves if they actually understood what went on.
Maybe if the students that dont even understand the previous grade are kept back the students who can understand it could be taught more and our country will once again be high on the education end of the spectrum.
Think it over,
