You are a Marine and cannot figure this out?

The very first thing she should do is tell her students to drop flat on the floor and turn their desks onto the floor in front of their bodies.

If the teacher is tactically smart, her file cabinet is next to her door, thus as she locks her door she opening the cabinet to retrieve her gun. If she is even smarter, she has made sure the file cabinet is weighted so she can move it in front of her door.

Going even further, she has purchased a heavy duty home style fire ladder for her classroom to get her students out.

Known fact, every single class has at least one extremely mature responsible student. That student is responsible for getting the ladder while the teacher is guarding her, now file cabinet covered door.

Hopefully, said teacher’s gun is a 45 with hollow point ammunition.

All the above is now standard protocol in a private Yeshiva school since October 2023. It has been practice drilled several times. Gee, I wonder why.

And a few more comments. Ovommit applied to Occidental college as Barry Soetoro on a foreign student application. He t***sferred to Columbia University after 1 yr and at Columbia was never seen by any of the 400 students in his class. He supposedly was President of the Columbia Law Review but never penned his name to any articles or never had any research papers published in the Law Review. No women dated him, he was never seen in the college cafeteria, no one remembers him in any classes and then his records and grades were all hidden for at least another 50 years. He was indoctrinated in Sol Alinsky's radical l*****t ways, would not answer questions as to how a poor kid could pay for tuition at an expensive university and would seldom talk about his years at Columbia, occidental or Harvard. In other words, ovommit is a liar, s grifter. a fraud, a pot smoker which is illegal and should be serving time in prison and not running slo pedo Joe's presidency to ruin America. In fact no one ever vetted this imposter. The feds were absent, the dnc could have cared less, the Deep State endorsed this c*******t and the corrupt media would never bash a fraudulent black man running for President since they are all chicken $hits.

Equitable Grading?
David Strom5:20 PM | April 19, 2024


Grades are r****t or something.

So, school districts are rethinking the idea of grading altogether. Perhaps nobody should get A's, D's, or F's.

Everybody is average, and average is all right with them.

Dublin Unified School District (east of the Bay Area) is dropping the traditional grading system in favor of "Equity Grading," and it looks like they are at the forefront of a trend. The idea is to get kids to quit focusing on grades and make everybody feel better about themselves.

Hrihaan Bhutani is already thinking about college. The Dublin High freshman is taking four Advanced Placement classes next year and has crammed his schedule with extracurricular activities to better his chances of getting into an Ivy League school.

But a change at the high school designed to get students less focused on grades has done the opposite. Suddenly, in some classes, A’s are almost unachievable, unless you score 100%. And F’s don’t exist. For high-achieving students like Bhutani, the pressure to be perfect is even more of a burden.

“I feel more stressed … now with this new system,” said Bhutani, who is especially sweating his biology class, one of dozens trying a variety of new grading scales under a two-year experiment. “Even if you’re at a 99, you would get moved down to an 85,” he explained, which t***slates to a world-ending B.

What the holy hell are they thinking?

Actually, that's a really stupid question. We all know what they are thinking: they are duplicating Kurt Vonnegut's Harrison Bergeron dystopia in which the underachievers run the world. Or perhaps the world of Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged, in which the truly mediocre take their revenge against the people who make the world work.

What would have been considered insane yesterday is accepted wisdom today. Furries are encouraged in the schools, while kids focused on their futures are being punished for working hard. And if you think this will help the kids on the bottom of the academic ladder--essentially hiding their illiteracy--you have lost the plot. Education is supposed to ensure that the economic and social ladder can be climbed.

This policy pulls the ladder up while tossing the kids at the top down into the sewers.

Dublin Unified’s new grading policy will go into effect for all 6th through 12th grade classes next year and is part of a national shift toward “equity grading” – a controversial concept that moves away from traditional grading to better measure how well students understand what they are being taught.

The goal is to lower the impact of things that “fluff” grades – extra credit, class participation and homework – while also making it easier for lower-performing students to bounce back from failing.

Several school districts in the Bay Area have explored similar ideas, including Oakland Unified, Pleasanton Unified, Santa Clara Unified and most recently Palo Alto Unified. But how districts implement the change differs, with some choosing to eliminate D’s and F’s, while others move away from zero grades or eliminate late penalties.

Of course, much of this isn't even an ill-considered attempt to pat low performers on the head and assure them they are special flowers. It helps the district by hiding the inability of the public schools to teach lower-performing students to do basic math and reading.

If you graduate everyone with a 'B' average, there is no way to suss out the schools' failure to do their jobs.

The performance gap between White and Asian students and minority students has been a persistent thorn in the side of educators. It makes them look bad. Best to hide the fact behind "equity grading."

Equitable grading was first coined by Joe Feldman in his 2018 book, “Grading for Equity,” which has become the instruction manual for more than 200 schools across the country. Feldman said he’s partnered with 25 districts and schools in California to guide them as they make the t***sition.

Liliana Castrellon, an assistant professor in the department of education at San Jose State University whose research focuses on equity in education, said equitable grading practices became more common in school districts after the C****-** p******c.

I wonder why? P******c policies took a bad situation and made it infinitely worse.

Schools are, we should admit, just plain awful. Not the concept of schools, and not every school, but on the whole America's education system is a cesspool of ideology and is now focused on producing emotionally disturbed and ignorant graduates who h**e America and our entire society's norms.

As schools have shifted to a "Social and Emotional" curriculum, our kids' mental health has suffered grievously. No generation has been so anxious, so depressed, and so isolated. Resilience--remember the "kids are resilient" mantra--is barely a thing anymore.

Educators have k**led it. They work assiduously to undo any good parents do and then instruct kids to hide their distress from their parents.

Schools are also hiding their kids' inability to do math and reading. They say it is about equity, but the t***h is that equity comes second to preserving public schools' failure.

Some low-performing kids cannot improve, but the vast majority have enough native talent to succeed if given the tools. Most of the achievement gap is created by poor parenting and poor schooling. You can't fix either by ignoring the problems.

Public schools, though, are more a jobs program for mediocre activists these days than educational institutions. It pains me to say that because hundreds of thousands of teachers got into the profession to do good, for which we should salute them. But somewhere along the way--decades ago now--the schools t***sfigured into a refuge for the mediocre.

What must it be like to be a good teacher in that environment? It must be depressing, surely.

After decades of frustration, the movement for school choice has gained incredible momentum because people are fed up. Many parents want their kids to have a future, not a pat on the head. Even some Democrats are crossing the picket line.

Republicans have been fighting the rot for decades, but as usual, we were called mean and r****t.

We are finally winning the battle because the t***h is getting hard to hide.

And still, once we win, we will be called mean and r****t. No good deed goes unpunished.

This story keeps coming up that Obama was a fraudulent president, had a f**e birth certificate a f**e Social Security card and was born in Kenya, not Hawaii. Hitlery was the 1st person to charge Obama with being a fraud while they fought it out in 2007 for the demorat P**********l pick for their party. Hitlery claimed that ovommit had a f**e birth certificate and was actually born in Kenya and not Hawaii. When all the real facts came out, Ovommit never could show us a legit long form birth certificate verifying that he was born in Hawaii. Document inspectors were called in to verify that the birth certificate was a fraud and sure enough it was proven to be false. With this fact, everything ovommit did in his 8 years would be null and void and his Supreme Court picks would have to step down and Trump would have the option to pick 2 more Justices. Remember too that ovommit's grandmother and half brother both claimed that Bathhouse boy was born at a hospital in Kenya.
