Bob,

Exactly. As Lenin put it, “Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.” Everyone wants a piece of K-12 school now.

The “Gentleman’s C” was the expectation at pre WW II Ivies.

Don’t forget, a major purpose of the public schools is to acculturate the students into the larger culture and to instill proper patriotism and behavior towards the ruling regime. That might be their most important function.

The child prisons are of course worse than useless for the children in particular and the nation in general. In more civilized times the person ‘babysitting’ was the master they were apprenticed too; whether that was a mentor or the parents themselves. Even the ‘gifted’ children who manage to jump through the hoops of child prisons benefit that much moreso when cultivated by actual mentorship.

Socrates taught Plato, Plato taught Aristoteles, and Aristoteles taught Alexander.

So it seems idiocracy is the goal. What’s the minimum goal and the least possible effort to be made by all concerned? I pity the next few generations.

This Isegoria entry is again an exposure of the Tyranny of the IQ Curve. The fruits of an education apply in Whites and North Asians to the IQ fraction above 105 mainly and for higher education the IQ fraction over 115. The rest are essentially lost after circa 6th grade having learned to read and do sums. This means most schooling through grade school, high school, college, graduate teacher’s college is Baby Sitting at best and Child Abuse or outright Fraud at worst.
