We must prioritize education and funding for underrepresented students, including students of color, girls, and low-income students, to help remove enrollment and achievement barriers.
We will equip students with the knowledge and skills to counter the rising tide of denialism by promoting environmental and climate literacy, and reverse the Trump Administration’s cuts to the National Environmental Education Act. In addition, our education system will develop the deep learning and life skills needed to thrive in the 21st century.
Every classroom in America today has a Flatscreen in it. TV's are used extensively now in all schools private and public. NOT Running LEAVE IT TO BEAVER CLIPS but it is being used as a learning tool.
But, I hear what you are saying about Parents. Parents should never leave everything up to teachers regarding education.
If parents would just teach their children to behave- That would take a lot of stress off of the teachers right there.
Parents should always choose what their children are viewing on TV.
The evidence from nearly two decades of education reforms that hinge on standardized test scores shows clearly that high-stakes testing has not led to enough improvement in outcomes for students or for schools, and can lead to discrimination against students, particularly students with disabilities, students of color, low-income students, and English language learners.
The Biden-Harris Administration will end the use of such high-stakes tests and encourage states to develop reliable, continuous, evidence-based approaches to student assessment that rely on multiple and holistic measures that better represent student achievement.
Assessments will provide families with clear, accessible, consistent information about how well schools are serving individual students and groups of students, while better representing student achievement.
Students, parents, and educators will be supported by data collection and analysis disaggregated by race, gender, disability, immigration status, and other important variables, to identify and address disparities in educational equity, access, and outcomes.
Biden will not do shit, unless it is via executive order
He has no mandate. America did speak on that. no court packing either.
Because we spend a fortune on it and get really crappy results...

My personal view is that the biggest impediment to K-12 education in America is requiring teachers to go to colleges of education with the second being heavy government involvement in the process.
I would prefer that a great, well educated, and motivated teacher be working in a ramshackle classroom with kids than a mediocre, union protected, teacher with a Master's degree that can't tell you anything about basic chemistry or do more than GED level math in a classroom with every technological benefit there is be teaching our kids.
We'll get better results with smart, motivated teachers who know their subject matter every time than with teachers that have an outstanding resume and lots of pieces of paper hanging on the wall but couldn't think their way out of a wet paper sack.
this thread is so sad
do democrats think the executive branch legislates?
You do get that you lost seats in the house, right? All of America weighed in - and don't like progressive policies.
you get that after the way you acted, the senate will do nothing but investigate Biden
you get that after how you acted, the senate will not make it easy for any judges to be nominated. If a SCOTUS seat opens, the senate will refuse to put him through. You can count on that
so enjoy the biden transformation.
Are you kidding me !! That senile old man won’t get anything done ! WTFU !
Irrelevant to the two questions. I'll repeat:
What if those students don't feel like going to class?
How about we use the money to pay them to go to class and turn in homework?
I realize those are uncomfortable questions for you , so I'll understand if you don't want to answer them.
That's just rhetorical bullshit. Nothing you stated has anything to do with the quality of or what is taught in public schools today. Much of what you stated is a combination of political correctness and hints at propagandizing and politicizing education as well. For example, you say this,I'd be happy to demolish you on "climate literacy" any time you like. I'll even start. Wind and solar are not the answer to reducing CO2 and are horribly expensive, inefficient, and technologically dead ends that should be dropped nearly entirely if CO2 reduction is truly your goal.knowledge and skills to counter the rising tide of denialism by promoting environmental and climate literacy,
Does that run counter to what you would "...equip students with the knowledge and skills to counter the rising tide of denialism..."? If it does then what you stated argues for propagandizing and politicizing the classroom if I am correct on that.
