Lockdowns didn't do shit and instead actually made getting Covid slightly worse. Masks don't make any difference and yet, they were mandated in schools to the detriment of students' social skills. And don't get me started on making kids take the jabs even though the 0-19 group has less than a 0.1% chance of dying from infection.
Among schools that reported students below level, nearly all said at least some students were lagging in reading and math. Eighty percent cited science and about 70 percent social studies.
Queer math isn’t panning out? Still hilarious the same people that shut down schools, forced the problem, and are now exasperated said problem can only blame a virus instead of their own malice, laziness, and ineptitude
“It just means we’ve got a long road ahead of us … to get kids to get back to grade level,” said Rachel Hansen, director of the center’s survey project.
And how do you plan on doing that? Getting rid of all the subjective stuff to spend more time on the basics? Firing incompetent teachers and administrators, especially the ones who kept advocating the lockdowns? Keeping kids back a year if they bomb everything? Advocating for political positions to improve schools beyond "gimme more money"?
Oh, none of the above? Then you're not fixing anything. Unless you have a student with a large amount of personal motivation to put in the extra time to do the makeup work, you're not going to make up for a year (in some cases, two years) worth of missed class time. Especially in an educational system which is barely scraping many of the students by as-is.
WuFlu didn't lock down society. Governments did.

Sounds like everything is proceeding as intended.
IF ONLY SOMEONE HAD WARNED THEM!
I'm so sick of all of this nonsense.
