Berkeley Grade School System Under Attack
A Berkeley educational report from a 20 member board, released by the Berkeley Gazette, calls for sweeping changes in the elementary program. It notes too little focus on academic achievement and too much on emotional maturity, urges restoring achievement as primary, and highlights cases of students entering junior high without long division experience. Two dissenters argue for grading by achievement, not age, to avoid narrowing education to test results.
