These two stories from Yahoo! show just how far away from common sense the public school system has gotten. shine.yahoo.com/parenting/bus-…. news.yahoo.com/evolution-debat…. I find the one about the bus driver to me much worse and illogical. What if the student had killed another student while the bus driver was following district policy. I especially dislike the districts refusal to comment on their policy after the fact. The text book story is sadly nothing new. It only serves to show how religion is not excluded as it should be from public education, particularly where the sciences are concerned. Thoughts?
Science or Just a flawed study ?
https://www.yahoo.com/health/cheerful-depressed-the-season-in-which-you-were-born-100507876602.html. I find this to be rather unconvincing and at best a flawed study where the researchers found what they wanted to find and ignored data that went against their desired conclusions. At worst this is an attempt to make astrology seem like legitimate science. What do you think?
Scary world out there
https://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2014/04/07/New-Jersey-teen-suspended-from-school-for-twirling-pencil-like-a-gun/6901396876142/?spt=sec&or=on. I wont say the school was entirely wrong in this case but it seems to me that they reacted before actually seeing if anyone but the unnamed student agreed with his assessment. For all the district knows he was just twirling the pencil and the other student over reacted or had a grudge against the person who was suspended. If this tests had come back and backed the school's opinion, that would be one thing. As it looks from this story the school over reacted and put a black mark on this students record
Nex time they should just let him die

People like this are the reason that good samaratins have become an endangered species today. Sadly suing rescuers and people who help in general is common these days of "someone has to be at fault".
Someone is likely going to get hurt
https://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2014/02/17/Students-warned-not-to-play-games-with-bears/UPI-64371392672052/. If the college has to issue a warning about this behavior then I feel that someone will eventually harass the wrong bear and get seriously hurt or killed. Thoughts?

The public EDU system dose not teach to individual skill, over burdens students with general knowledge without teaching them much about life or how to balance a check book. They should invoke federal law on public learning and make all IPs free to use for learning that would take a huge chuck out of the greed factor teachers and others have to foul up the system. Then from there build a system built on reading,writing, basic computer skills, reading comprehension,basic math up to division and multiplication. The in middle school start home economics and current social studies/ basic world and US history while keep the other skills as sharp as possible. Then in high school its all prep for advance learning be it vocab(sports/engineering,ect) or arts or business. Even advanced learning is all fouled up by the same issues.
