    Yeah I live here & had the unfortunate opportunity to hear the Dept of Ed try to spin this in an interview. Their spokesperson said, to paraphrase, that “No, of course not. These standards are evenhanded and show the good and the bad from an objective perspective.”

    Of who? I am just so sad - my oldest kids made it though during the brief shining period of good education in my county, but I have one with a couple of years left, who is seeing it plunge back into the bullshit ‘education’ that was what I suffered through. Just butts in seats, indoctrinate don’t educate, that might lead to thinking.
