Interesting video.I wasn't aware that Denzel Washington went around engaging in such discussions... actually,I did see some video clip with him on Instagram but I did not bother checking it out.
So I'm fuming
Some of you are aware of this. My kid doesn't get homework starting this yr.
The district board made this change for grades 1 through 4. All yr long the wife and I have been asaigning our own homework.
My wife found out the real reason. Aparently the powers that be felt it was unfair that students from families that lacked parental involvement we're failing because they were not submitting the work or doing so incorrectly. Now how the F is this fair to my kid who is ready and able to do so such work. Soo pissed man. I keep saying it but I thought I was leaving this craziness behind on NYC.
Even worse there's another school district that is taking ESL to a whole other level. Thank God this isn't in ours.
Half the of the day the classes will be on total Spanish and the other half will be english

Just wait until they start with the gey subject matter in the classes....your head is gonna do this!
The no homework thing is really bad. Im not sure I even understand that concept.
I do like the idea of mandating the learning of a second language, particularly Spanish. At a young age it is much easier to learn. Half the day in complete Spanish sounds a little much but I like where the idea comes from.

Welcome to the L agenda. Lets don't help the weaker students rise to a higher level. Nah that would help capitalism etc or anything economically stimulating.
No instead we'll take people that are doing well and hold them back.
With your views your in enemy territory my friend.
I took a weird personality test that told me what blood type I have and it worked.

Our schools are the opposite, they give my daughter homework all the time. Which most involves a parent. I saw it more as homework for the parent.
