re: Yet another setback for Louisiana Education (HB269)

Growing up in BR, it was obivous that public schools were a night mare. But I didn’t know how bad it was until I got in a relationship with a teacher in the EBR Public school system and holy hellll it’s worse than any of us realize…

To us, this is a setback and failure of the education system. To the people on the school boards, it’s a win and a positive. I always thought you had to pass your current grade to graduate to the next. Not even close. In EBR, you can only hold back a kid once in their entire academic career. A kid can fail every year and still will graduate with just 1 year of being held back.

It’s insane.
