Re:What Should the Department of Education Do? by rahimnathwani on Friday September 05, 2025 @08:39PM (#45145427)
In K-12 education, there are two opposing views related to individual student achievement:

A) 'pro-excellence': raise the ceiling, aim to maximize the realization of human potential.

B) 'pro-equity': raise the floor, narrow the 'achievement gap' at all costs, including lowering the ceiling.

Viewpoint B is what guides much of district-level education policy in the US.
