If you look back about 40 years and beyond... That's when you actually had to be smart to get an A... The school grading system is out of whack, but certain classes are harder now because of more discoveries and different methods.

Where do you live? Because in Arizona, the education system is a complete joke. Most kids are placed in advanced classes not because they are qualified, but because classrooms are too crowded. Everything is dumbed down, and getting an A is meaningless.

umm... my middle school, which was Mount Washington(k-8), when your in 7th grade, you have to do the eighth grade work, then in eighth grade you have to take Alegra 1. Then when you get into high school, (which alot of kids want to go to Walnut Hills or Dater) you have to take alegra 2 in your freshman year.
Does this make sense to people? ♥ 8/21/09 ♥

I've seen some "average" kids around the age of 14 and such which don't even know the difference between "their", "there" and "they're". Things like that. It is shocking. English skills in the middle class is definatly falling. Also, history... well, need I say more? Most schools barely even cover it until you're about 16 or 17, and then it's usually by option. My father never attended school beyond the age of 16, yet he's got a better knowledge of history than most university graduates. He learned it when he was about 10. Also, discipline is almost non existant now. It means the kids who don't have self motivation cannot have motivation forced upon them, pretty much gaurenteing they'll have a shit future. The eternal Saint is calling, through the ages she has told. The ages have not listened; the will of faith has grown old…
For forever she will wander, for forever she withholds; the Demon King is on his way, you’d best not be learned untold… |

But one thing I can agree on is the English skills. Because my mom always tells me how they absolutly MADE her write in cursive when she was in school. NOw they don't care because you can always just type it and then spell check it. Lazy if I do say so myself. ♥ 8/21/09 ♥
