Without the Department of Education/Brainwashing and Leftist Indoctrination that President Trump has largely dissolved, student test scores should begin to improve, respect for our constitutional republic should increase and students will learn there are 50 states, not 57 as claimed by President Obama.
No, not as bad as West Linn. The men at Lakeridge High ripped the tampon machine off the wall in their restroom and dumped it into a toilet and tried flushing it. Pictures of Tampon Tim’s dispensing machine resting in the toilet went viral.
It's the same story in Hopkins, Minnesota, the near-west suburb of Minneapolis where we live. We've been here only 14 years so we can't give a personal account of how things once were, but according to the locals the community was once a magnet for parents wanting the best schools; now they send their kids to other districts (which is somehow possible here) or they go private or they get out. Listening to the pronouncements of our superintendent, whose proudest credential is that she is "the first woman and the first person of color to serve as a Hopkins superintendent", you'd think you'd tuned in to some leftist lunatic. She is completely identity-obsessed and insane to the core. Despite her statement that "her vision is to bring Hopkins Public Schools from great to world class so that all Hopkins scholars reach their full potential", rational parents seem to disagree by pulling their kids out. But what should we expect from government schools, which are by their very nature the definition of socialism: "No, we are not going to fix the public schools": https://daveziffer.substack.com/p/no-we-are-not-going-to-fix-the-public
We lived very close to the high school, drove by it to get to our house. One of the grade schools was just two blocks on the other side of our house. Another grade school was two blocks from my office. I can't help but wonder what we would have done had we had children in that school district, learning what BS they were teaching them. About 20 years ago, parents came together to create a charter school. It has always had a waiting list. THAT was not easy because Oregon politicians HATE charter schools. AND PERVERTS OF ALL KINDS CAN BE FOUND IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS NOW.
Saw it out in Banks as early as 1984. Bad teaching not the indoctrination. DOE and NEA changed from teaching “up” to teaching to the lowest common denominator. What I know is I’m likely not being admitted to Whitman College had I gone to high school these days vs then. I wouldn’t have written that paper about Islam. I would likely have received an F. So sad.
And collapse they should...

I wonder if Lake Oswego School District had descended into the same nightmare as West Linn-Wilsonville's.

Ha! Destroy a society and a nation by first capturing the youth.
