California Schools Drop ‘D’ and ‘F’ Grades in a Shift to ‘Competency-Based’ Learning

Jordan Dixon-Hamilton 10 Dec 2021

Some of the largest school districts in California are dropping “D” and “F” grades, moving towards what they call “competency-based” learning.

Oakland Unified, Sacramento City Unified, Santa Ana, Los Angeles, and other school districts across the state are limiting the use of “D” grades and phasing out “Fs” entirely.

Instead of failing an assignment or exam, students now have the option to retake a test and have additional time to complete an assignment.

So, in effect, a "C" grade will be the functional equivalent of an "F".

Yeah... imagine being in an aircraft designed by one of these (everyone passes) "participation" scholars? I am so glad I escaped California for Texas four years ago.

And now you know why California ranks dead last among the 50 states in education.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

  • I don't believe in Trump anymore, he's an illusion
If the students were competent to begin with they wouldn't have had D's or F's. It's amazing in a really sad cringing way what has happened to the education of our our children, not just in California but all across America. What children were taught and required to be actually "competent' in the past to what the communists have dumbed down our education system to now is absolutely criminal.

They're dropping D and F grades and "reforming" math where you don't have to get the right answer....
