We are ultimately talking about wanting the best outcome for all young people and sons and daughters. If you have an axe to grind take it elsewhere. It might be hard to accept, but some people really want to see everyone succeed.

We should always go to data but the education system should strive to give people a chance. Maybe the problem is way earlier in this case but it's worth trying.

Classic tactic you got there. "This area is only for the righteous, if you have any criticism in our methods, please leave."

The reply was condescending and the poster can get lost. I won't apologize for a thing. They can post a top level comment if they want to kick up sand.

Well, at least when men get the short end of the stick.

The rest of the year, silence.

That was my point.
