re: The biggest problem in schools that no one is talking about

Hell my daughter got in the mid 20's on the ACT and she is in 7th grade. Straight A student but she studies and does homework 3-4 hours a night. It is 5-6 hours at high school. School is hard as hell. Kids are required now to write a novel before graduation and be fully bilingual. Typical Public school A-B students get those ACT scores as seniors. There are also huge variances between public schools. I think the average grade is a B now
