I wouldn’t pass the civics part. I’d get a lot right, but if we are talking needing to get 7/10 right I don’t think I would right now.
ETA: looking at it again, the only sections I can comfortably say I’d pass are the arithmetic and the physiology sections. I’d get close in the civics section and I’d fail geography, grammar, and history. I may get 1-2 in grammar and that’s it

Amazing isn't it?
The truth is that by third grade, it’s too late in most cases. The speed and depth at which the language processing parts of the brain grow between infancy and five years old is exponentially faster than anything afterwards.
One of the most interesting studies looked at the amount of words parents used in the home based on their education levels and measured their children’s long term language results. Parents with advanced degrees used an exponentially higher variety of words in the home and the results in their children’s long term performance versus children from less educated parents was staggering.

Yes, we started this in Mississippi about 3 years ago. Haven’t had time to feel its benefits at the high school level but it is the ONLY educational standard passed in this state that makes sense. It has got to help on standardized tests , which believe it or not are some of the hardest in the US that Miss. uses

The myth that parent involvement to create school preparedness enables children to be more successful? Ok

That's actually bad for Republicans, since 99% of the illiterate send votes their way. Interesting move.

Parental "involvement" is likely a function IQ. How does a low IQ parent impart wisdom or preparedness onto a low IQ child.

What about this thread has been political? Why do politics worm their way into every aspect of life in progressive people’s day-to-day existence?
And I’d like to see the rates of illiterates and 1) if they vote, and 2) who they vote for. I’d be willing to bet you are dead wrong.

Because even a low IQ parent can read Red Fish Blue Fish and Green Eggs and Ham to a 5 year old. It’s amazing what just minimal effort can do

If only schools had inexhaustible money, from everyone except those employed by the schools of course...Another tax should easily fix this. Oh, let's issue another bond too! Tack on a few fees, a surcharge here, a millage there. Almost just right, a few million more is all it takes!
This is a legit argument but you also have to keep in mind that schools do about a thousand times more things than they were expected to do a hundred years ago when modern public education really began.
Plus the school’s infrastructure has changed completely just in the last twenty years. It’s not realistic to keep the same sources of funding.

90% of American adults wouldn’t pass the civics part.
70% would shite themselves trying to define democracy and republic in the same question.
name 5 county officials (I can describe their duties though)
and also don't know what the eligibility is to be governor of Kentucky (or Georgia where I'm from, nor Alabama where I live)

According to the below report the highest literacy in Alabama is in Shelby County 82% of its voters went for Trump.
Bullock County had the lowest literacy, 75% of its voters voted for Clinton.

Exhibit A as to why we need more civic literacy in this country.
