> "While SFUSD insists that its new approach does not compromise the rigor of its education, but ensures
that all students enter high school with the same mathematical foundation, many parents see the district’s new standards as a dumbing down of the curriculum."
So to ensure equality is to lower the bar? Isn't this going to create more inequality? We know that economically-challenged families would not, statistically speaking, be able to afford tutoring, so they depend even more on public school teachers to teach their kids. Yet the answer of the SFUSD was to push students less in school. Guess who will eventually suffer?

I find it insulting and outrageous.
