I have never been able to understand the rational behind these 'leave no one behind' style initiatives. Rewarding someone for non-achievement is doing a dis-service to both the person who needs to learn and all those who actually worked and learned.

No wonder my wife, a veteran teacher of 33 years is counting the days to retirement.

As the old fellow said: "If you hold a match near the thermometer, it reads warmer, but the room is still cold,

I used to wonder why the Roman Empire fell apart. I am able to understand that now.
