With covid and the governor lowering standards for graduation, a standardized test is necessary . We need better educated students and graduates.

I don't know if standardized tests are hurting a certain group of students, but I do know that socially promoting certain students who fail to learn basic life requirements, like balancing checkbooks, reading, etc., is doing them a big disservice. Bringing back civics, PE, tool shop is a good idea.

I go back & forth on this subject. With the standard set so low for students due to the pandemic. It seems scary to have children behind in the basics. I’m from Ventura, Ca since the early 90’s. Things in Oregon back then seemed way behind in the school system.

Absolutley especially important since lockdowns...our children's education has suffered, and we need to get back reading, writing, arithmetic and foster critical thinking once again.

Miss Iran 2022 Loves Trump's Decision To Bomb The IRGC Into Oblivion. Miss Iran 2022 is so excited over the freedom Donald Trump is trying to bring to her beloved land. This is tough for the democrats, but it's called reality. See it on Fox News

Only because I don't have access to the same information as our leaders. When it is "our guy" in the big chair doesn't mean he should get a pass to do whatever he wants. Some great conservative said something once about trust and verify. I'll let you look that up.

Once again Israel wants to start a fight and they just mold the president like play-doh to do what they want him to do. Two criminals terrorizing the world.

I vote for my favorite actors and awards also give me an idea of what I want to watch. Other than that winners don't matter to me.

Haven't watched any of them in decades. Who wants to see some very rich celebrities pat each other on the back and tell us all their political views?

Award shows are nothing more than self promotion of themselves. And act like self advertising. Like advertising, the less advertising the less popularity.

The award shows once mattered. Since they have become so much more than a few once or twice a year but rather at least a 100, all with varying degrees of actual criteria beyond marketing campaigns and now the over-compensating ā€œinclusive,ā€ nature of certain categories going out of their way

The only awards shows that I ever watch are the CMAs in Nashville. The rest, which originate in California, aren't worth the powder to blow them up.
