A pat on the back, administered often enough, forcefully enough and low enough builds character. Or raises a blister.

A delicious Kamala word salad. I love the passage of time and a yellow school bus full of dindunuffins making Venn diagrams

I think you're onto something. I suspect that is zactly what they are doing during the street takeovers. Should get extra credit...

Encouraging and rewarding perfect attendance is no longer emblematic of system racism?

Can we be sure?

Nobody said anything about being on time


Funny, it takes all that ******** to accomplish what a phone call used to accomplish

Yes, but they can teach the general public to pick it up by the clean end.

You know how many CHarter Schools are available in MoCo? Care to guess?

Zero, according to my informants.

So you go with the Indoctrination Centers, or if you're sufficiently wealthy, private schools, or of you're strong enough to weather the storms of enraged bureaucracy, homeschooling.

Discipline is an issue; children are easily bullied by peer pressure, and physical attacks are not uncommon, though they are carefully ignored due to demographic phobias.

Responsibility is anathema; the educational system does not encourage this concept, preferring to transfer all responsibility for citizens and their offspring to the benevolence of Government. Also, it's presumed racist, of course.

The issue is probably mooted, as the primary influence on the vast majority of today's children comes through their direct digital optical link to their brains.
