Re: FYI: Death Star To Open Day Care Centre (fwd)

Unfortunately, coming from the California school system, this is what
"educators" have been preaching for quite a few years over here.
Help build up a false sense of esteem, even though the kids in
the class know who are smart students, average students and dummies.
Don't give out grades, because it might fracture their fragile egos.
As a result, the unpromotable gets promoted to the next grade and
an ever increasing portion of the student population cannot read
or write properly, do math, or know naything about history or 
geography.
