In the next 100 years, the leaders of the tomorrow will be wearing diapers when entering high school.

“In the next 100 years, the leaders of the tomorrow will be wearing diapers when entering high school.”

And sticking us in labour camps for disagreeing with them on the definition of gender.

What we used to call a high school diploma we now call a baccalaureate.

A dozen millennial’s protested the NINE DOLLAR cost of the new train line to Denver International Airport. This is LESS than the bus used to cost. http://denver.cbslocal.com/2016/04/22/protest-dia-denver-international-airport-a-line-train/

That’s why I sacrificed $$$ to send my kids to a classical Christian school where they read all the Classical Greek literature and took Latin from the 3rd grade.

Home school & private school is the only choice left.

yes but 100 years ago our society was much more homogenous–see a trend here?

No, you twit, we can’t see a trend. Maybe if we read the article once more real slow.

If your trying to imply that educational performance has tracked the decline of the dollar or the dissolution of society or the growth of teacher unions, fine.

Unless you were going to suggest morons like you joined the ranks of students thereby fucking up the curve…

Master debator finsbury you should see schooling in other countries, where they learn in english that isnt even their language , have about 1% of the money spent and are still 3 grades ahead. When none of us can even add up any longer from common core crap, those other cultures will still be able to count, spell and much more, because they havent been infested as much yet with the things El Coyote mentioned.

The educational establishment has told us that the graduation rate in high school is one of the most important measures of educational success. As a whole, we bought that premise and the educational establishment has spent a lot of money o salaries and had tremendous success raising the graduation rate. Many cannot read or write or do simple math. Some have not even mastered attending class or not being disruptive but they are graduating. I suspect that most hs graduates today would be hard pressed to pass 8th grade competency tests of 70 years ago. Those hs diplomas are just so much toilet paper.

Thanks, Hershel. I don’t know why they still make them a requirement for employment. Unless they are just using it as an excuse to give the job to an unqualified (illegal) worker. It seems all a hs diploma proves now is your good at dodging bullets.
