And we are TOTALLY on the same page re. education of special needs kids. The "amateurs" just dropped down from another planet and don't understand why "all children" can't do the same curriculum.

Hello! Their NEEDS are not the SAME!!!! That's why they're called... all together now, and *verrrry* slowly:

"EX-CEP-TION-AL".

Now say it again.

And again.

And one more time.

But the above is just the most blatant example of the catastrophic assumptions that corporate reformers and the idiot pols that they "influence" have rolling around in their otherwise empty noggins. Tip of the iceberg. Their whole ed agenda is based on false assumptions that grow from a complete lack of familiarity w. public education... in any of its forms.

That's what class privilege will bring ya. You do NOT learn this stuff at mega-bucks prep schools. You do NOT learn it by NOT teaching professionally. So go pick junk bonds or whatever it is you guys like to do and do well.

Don't get involved... in even the remotest way... w. public ed. It is terra incognito for you and , alas, will always remain so.

Gotta run. Happy Day!
