Ohio graduates won’t have to be “proficient” in math or English, under state superintendent’s plan
I was a high school teacher, public and private, for 21 years, those first years in Ohio, and those were the hungriest minds I ever encountered. It may be that times have changed, but it’s also likely that those responsible have just given up.
I should add that I also graduated from a high school in Ohio. That education permitted me entrance into the Ivy League [an overrated status], Oxbridge study, and respect from the snobby pseuds of the east coast Protestant churches, and all I wanted to be was an auto mechanic. Imagine if my educators' goal was to have made me merely competent.
