I’m disappointed the majority again ignores parents’ concerns, favoring divisive culture wars for political gain.
It’s difficult to articulate how impractical these proposals are, to say nothing of the pain and suffering they’ll inflict on students, educators and their communities, if they were to become law.
Codifying this new system without assessing its effectiveness just doesn’t make any sense.
