My son currently is in residential treatment. He had suffered severe anxiety and depression due to on going bullying in school. The zero tolerance policy is a joke; the school victim blames and does not focus on providing a safe place for students to come forward with bullying.
The fact that legislators would use this for political gain and schools would use this as a financial game (teaching to the tests so they get an A rating, which gives them more money, wash-rinse-repeat). is a no from me.
Didn't they learn something from the failure of the No Child Left Behind?
I personally don't care, but I understand why it is important to so many. I'm embarrassed how bad our 'top tier' athletes are doing. Is this the best we have? I've seen Disney on Ice, couple of those folks surely could have been available.
