Do they think kicking them out of the school system, but with a worthless diploma in hand, that every employer will laugh at, is gonna help them more?

At this point I'm fairly certain that progressive politicians have a lower opinion on the capacity and personhood of blacks than most southern slave owners had in the 1800s.

Robert E. Lee himself would have been a better educator to black students than the average progressive teacher today

My favorite part is that the tests were so easy that they could not predict college performance.
Farley pointed to a 2021 analysis by Oregon's Higher Education Coordinating Commission that found no clear evidence that implementing the proficiency standards improved the performance of Oregon high school graduates during their first year of community college or university classes. The report did not study all possible postsecondary outcomes, Farley told the commission, and the state could do further research on that point.
The report also notes that it's possible that the level of skill required to meet Oregon's since-paused academic mastery standards was “too low to improve college and university outcomes.” It's also possible, the report said, that student success in college relies more heavily on other factors than writing or math skill levels.

Well the cool thing is corporate America is geared up to take them in. Your new manager can't read or write good, but they have a valuable lived experience.

I miss oregonlive, a surprising great news site when I still lived in the Portland area. Wish San Antonio had a local news site that wasn't tabloid level of writing most of the time.
