@cwebber@social.coop it really got to my mother how many students couldn't read at a hs level because they'd just been passed from class to class. You know how the military just promotes people to get rid of them? Yeah so you'd get a freshman in hs who could only read at a 5th grade reading level and who had no accommodations or anything. Not to say highschools don't pass those kids so they can graduate but still the entire idea of someone failing their way through school but teachers are putting passing grades instead of focusing on accommodating them and actually like... helping them?
