They do not care what this lockdown did to children.

In fact, they think it’s funny.

They are trying now to force-vax them all, so there is zero reason they would care about destroying their brains.

The COVID-19 pandemic spared no state or region as it caused historic learning setbacks for America’s children, erasing decades of academic progress and widening racial disparities, according to results of a national test that provide the sharpest look yet at the scale of the crisis.

Across the country, math scores saw their largest decreases ever. Reading scores dropped to 1992 levels. Nearly four in 10 eighth graders failed to grasp basic math concepts. Not a single state saw a notable improvement in their average test scores, with some simply treading water at best.

Those are the findings from the National Assessment of Educational Progress — known as the “nation’s report card” — which tested hundreds of thousands of fourth and eighth graders across the country this year. It was the first time the test had been given since 2019, and it’s seen as the first nationally representative study of the pandemic’s impact on learning.

“It is a serious wakeup call for us all,” Peggy Carr, commissioner of the National Center for Education Statistics, a branch of the Education Department, said in an interview. “In NAEP, when we experience a 1- or 2-point decline, we’re talking about it as a significant impact on a student’s achievement. In math, we experienced an 8-point decline — historic for this assessment.”

Researchers usually think of a 10-point gain or drop as equivalent to roughly a year of learning.

It’s no surprise that children are behind. The pandemic upended every facet of life and left millions learning from home for months or more. The results released Monday reveal the depth of those setbacks, and the size of the challenge facing schools as they help students catch up.

Education Secretary Miguel Cardona said it’s a sign that schools need to redouble their efforts, using billions of dollars that Congress gave schools to help students recover.

“Let me be very clear: these results are not acceptable,” Cardona said.

The NAEP test is typically given every two years. It was taken between January and March by a sample of students in every state, along with 26 of the nation’s largest school districts. Scores had been stalling even before the pandemic, but the new results show decreases on a scale not seen before.

In both math and reading, students scored lower than those tested in 2019. But while reading scores dipped, math scores plummeted by the largest margins in the history of the NAEP test, which began in 1969.

Math scores were worst among eighth graders, with 38% earning scores deemed “below basic” — a cutoff that measures, for example, whether students can find the third angle of a triangle if they’re given the other two. That’s worse than 2019, when 31% of eighth graders scored below that level.

No part of the country was exempt. Every region saw test scores slide, and every state saw declines in at least one subject.

You would think that the people complaining about what this did to the socialization and education of children would start getting thoughts about the vax. You’d think they’d start to wonder how much the government actually cares about kids.

But they don’t. They won’t.

People will just keep believing in the government because it’s easier.

It feels good to just believe. It’s a feeling of release.

I simply don’t care about test scores when the planet is dying and thousands of us are still dying weekly from the ever-evolving virus that is disabling thousands more.

MURRAY VS. REALITY:

Since the pandemic, student test scores have plummeted to levels not seen since 1990.

While most agree that keeping students out of school for 2 years was wrong, Patty Murray refuses to acknowledge anything should've been done differently.#WASenDebate pic.twitter.com/0sGwOqxs3q

An eternal law of nature which Marxists wrongly believe they can break: You cannot bring the inferior up to the level of the superior – all you can do is bring the superior down to the level of the inferior.

From Daily Mail:

Pupils in England are among the worst-behaved in the developed world, research has found.

The Government and Ofsted ‘seriously underestimate’ the scale of classroom indiscipline, which affects nearly all schools, says a study.

Even many institutions which are popular and over-subscribed are plagued by bad behaviour.

Schools with the worst problems face serious disruption every day – pupils screaming obscenities, threatening staff, swearing, spitting and refusing to behave when asked. Poor parenting and pressure on schools to avoid expelling troublemakers are thought to be fuelling the crisis.

But the Department for Education and Ofsted seem unaware of the extent of classroom disruption – claiming that behaviour in 99.7 per cent of schools is satisfactory.

Professor Terry Haydn, an education expert at the University of East Anglia, cited international evidence that teachers in England face more difficult pupil behaviour than in many rival nations.

His research highlighted findings from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development which administers the world’s biggest education survey, known as PISA. OECD members include most of the world’s wealthy nations.

‘Some data from PISA research …  suggests that teachers in England may be teaching in more difficult contexts than their counterparts elsewhere,’ his report says.

England, for example, slumped to 32nd place out of 38 for the proportion of students who reported that ‘their teachers never or rarely have to wait long for them to quieten down’.

A further PISA report found that in England, 31 per cent of pupils report that ‘in most or all lessons there is noise and disorder’.

Professor Haydn suggests the poor behaviour may partly explain the superior performance of countries such as China and Japan in international school tests.

Many lessons in England are simply designed to keep control and involve ‘defensive’ strategies such as using textbooks and worksheets or showing the pupils a television programme, he says.

The influx of migrants from Eastern Europe has fuelled a huge rise in the number of schoolchildren who do not speak English as a first language.

In five years between 2008 and 2013 the number of Eastern European pupils who don’t speak English at home almost tripled from just over 44,000 to more than 123,000.

Astonishingly, one in nine English schools now has a majority of pupils who do not speak English as a first language. The official figures lay bare the enormous strain mass migration has placed on our schools.

The number of pupils who speak Romanian as a first language has seen the steepest increase – rising 527 per cent in five years. The number using Bulgarian at home has risen by 255 per cent.

However, the Education Department figures – obtained by the Daily Mail under Freedom of Information laws – only cover the five years before labour market restrictions on both countries were lifted last month, meaning the trend looks set to continue.

Schools are already struggling to cope with the demand for places, with some having to teach pupils in temporary classrooms.

Official estimates suggest that more than one million extra places will be needed in Britain over the next decade, which will bring the total required to eight million by 2022, the highest for 40 years.

The Government is already having to spend £5billion by 2015 on increasing the number of places to help ease the crisis.

Concerns have also been raised about the impact of the rising numbers on other services, including the NHS and social housing.

Educating children who do not speak English as their mother tongue also puts a huge financial strain on schools.

The cost of educating a non-native speaker has been estimated at up to £30,000 a year, compared to around £5,000 for other pupils, because of the need for intensive classroom assistance.

Anastasia De Waal, of think-tank Civitas, warned the strain on resources was damaging the education of both English children and those from recent migrant families.

‘In too many cases our schools are simply not set up to accommodate very high proportions of children who start school without fluent English,’ she said.

Children as young as four have violently attacked their teachers, new figures suggest.

In one instance, a nursery school teacher was reportedly smacked, kicked and headbutted by a child in Walsall, West Midlands.

Elsewhere, it is claimed a pupil punched and headbutted a staff member after grabbing them by the neck in Houndslow, West London.

One teacher in Derby was stabbed in the arm with a pencil, according to reports.

Teachers across the country were scratched kicked and even bitten by children they were attempting to control, The Sun on Sunday has reported.

Figures published by the newspaper suggested that children as young as four have violently assaulted teachers 21,000 times in the past two years.
