And the most noble prizes, Silicon Valley, biotech. Problem is we have so many languages spoken here from immigrants and working class stuff for the educated/middle class plus. And crops have exceptions for migrants, remember this is the biggest agricultural state also.

Not just students

"More than 2,000 NC teachers failed a math licensing exam. Now it may be dropped.

The math exam that has made it difficult for hundreds of new North Carolina teachers to get their license could be phased out as early as February, based on a recent vote by a panel of state education experts."

Did you watch the video that goes into the problems?  If you did, you are probably wondering WTF???  They are expected to now evaluate what the student is thinking by how the student works the problem.  

The teaching of math no longer involves what worked for hundreds of years.  Now good teachers can no longer understand how they are supposed to teach these invaluable life lesson experiences, much less explain them to their students.  

Once, local school districts controlled what was taught, and idiots trying to push this stuff were laughed out of town.  Now  someone takes this kind of idea to a Federal Department of Education, and now everyone has to use the idiot idea.  Just start looking at all the textbooks out there, not just math.  

And we wonder at the dumbing down of American students?
