Strange, but the Asian students that I taught were equipped to handle such a heavy academic program. Are they genetically different?
You say that the concepts are 6th, 7th, and 8th grade concepts. And that was passed down on a tablet that definitively defined what is taught when?
I agree that it is difficult to up the standards on children who are already behind. Just because people are behind doesn’t mean that they are in the right place. They were behind by the old standards also. Should we keep moving the standards down until no one is behind? Or set standards that keep pace with much of the rest of the world?
