Oregon Drops Essential Skills Requirements to Graduate High School, Citing Harm to 'Marginalized Students'

Business owners, beware of students with high school diplomas from Oregon.

They may not be able to read or do basic math.

According to Oregon Public Broadcasting, in 2020, the Oregon Department of Education suspended the "essential skills" requirement to accommodate students who had fallen behind because of school shutdowns and online learning -- or so they said.
 
Oregon schools suspended testing requirements for high school students to graduate. This ceasing of testing students will only hurt them, passing them through the system even if they have not acquired the knowledge to succeed in life in general. Read more and support in our bio!

A Mr. A. Lincoln once noted it is sometimes necessary and proper to cut off a leg to save the body but it was never necessary and proper to cut off the body to save a leg.  Oregon has just cut off the body.

Oregon is just joining much of the nation in its concerted efforts to NOT educate our children.  No expectations = no results.

We keep perfecting our approach to have a complete nation dumb as a box of rocks, or as dumb as the dumbest demographic.

What they are saying,without coming right out and saying  it,is that "Blacks are too stupid to learn at the same level as whites,and even if they were,our teachers are too stupid  to teach them."

I honestly can't understand why black parents aren't outraged over  this. After all,WHO  wants to see their children fail in life and become parasites dependent on the government  for food,housing,clothing,etc,etc,etc?

Sure,the DNC  wants to see that happen because they want the dependent voters to vote for them and their  "free" programs,but  how  many blacks,NOT counting  "tame tokens" who will do and say whatever their masters in government  tell them to do and say, are in leadership positions in the DNC?

There is no surer way to "marginalize" people than to deny them an adequate education.

There is no surer way to "marginalize" people than to deny them an adequate education.

This was the natural ending to the "Participation trophy" experiment.    There are no winners....just losers.

Why do we even bother with all this hyper-self-conscious pandering?

Oregon is overwhelmingly white and not Latino.

Looks like the next biggest ethnic demo is Mixed Race. Then “Other” not named! Finally in 4th there seems to be yellow (“Asian” to PC world).  At a small %.

So blacks and Indians don’t even register as significant.

Why do we keep playing this game, ruining it for everyone because of self-conscious condescension to tiny groups?
