The dumbing down of America is a deliberate policy by Republican politicians.

Plus they want to start teaching the bible in school,creationism and what other stupid things . We need civics ,more technical schools,and classes how to evaluate what is true.

Ignorance is the easy route and all too many people take it. No reading; no travel ; no thinking. Sigh.

What DO we teach in school anymore?

They teach how to pass standardized tests. No joke.

I think they still have recess. But its much more regulated now!

@davknight In junior high I had to deal with fucktards grabbing my breasts when we were forced to go outside, a bit of supervision and regulation might be a good thing.

@Closeted I went to regular suburban public school. I was one of the really smart kids and was bullied.
