In answer to your question, no. That wasn't done the 21 years I was teaching nor in my kid's classes when they attended school from 1989 to 2012. It is also not in my grandchildren's classes which are in the 5th through 8th grades right now in three different school sytem in two different states.
Show me a school system where this is taught and I will show you a liberal dominated state or city.
The Department of Education is administered by the United States secretary of education. It has under 4,000 employees (2018) and an annual budget of $68 billion (2016).

Your last statement is completely irrelevant. How many students died during the shutdown?

"Public education is a socialist monopoly, a real one." - The Late Milton Friedman
Leftists dominate public education and higher education. See attached for the corrosive effects of Leftists in academia today.
I wouldn't even mind it being run by Liberals.....if they actually educated.
Sadly, they are utter failures at their supposed mission.
But eminently successful at indoctrination.

Let me give you a couple of reasons why they're so bad and so gullible.
1. Professor Walter Williams of George Mason University has stated that the TWO majors in college with the lowest average SAT scores are, get ready, education and sociology.
After graduating, many go on to graduate school where the two bottom scoring majors switch places.
I would have thought phys ed and art but education????
2. The average teacher graduated in the bottom third of their class. Yes, there are some very smart ones. We have to deal with averages however. For the record, I scored in the 95th percentile of my SAT and in the ATGSB as well. That is the Admission Test for Graduate Study in Business.
Chemical engineering undergrad was a bugger. MBA school was a cakewalk. First one out the door after completing my Finance Final Exam in a class of 100 or so. Didn't need to bother checking my answers. I knowed they wuz good!
(Chic, I will PM you a letter where I corrected a bigwig in a New York bank in his own area of expertise. It was printed in a very prestigious newspaper.)

You did not read my post. That is further proof of your abject ignorance. Your post is about California's colleges. What does that have to do with public schools?
It's called lousy pay, horrible hours, and lack of respect for the profession.
You did not read my post. That is further proof of your abject ignorance. Your post is about California's colleges. What does that have to do with public schools?
The University of California is a public school. And you cite MY "abject ignorance"? You're the teacher, not me. Your profession scored lower on average on SAT tests than any other major.
YOUR profession graduated in the bottom third of their class, on average. I didn't. So who's the ignorant one? You Leftists are so arrogant that you pretend to be smarter than anybody else while assuming that IF YOU WERE, which you are not, being smarter STILL does not make you right.
It's called lousy pay, horrible hours, and lack of respect for the profession.
Yes, the pay is for 180 days of work, and much less this year. Compare your "lousy hours" with those of the armed services, sleeping outside, carrying everything they own on their backs, and getting shot at. Do you make more than they do or less? The lack of respect is deserved.
Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach. Retirement pay is obscenely high for teachers.
Some superintendents in California are paid $250,000 a year instead of drawing social security like most of us. Sick. I have a friend who taught high school band. He drives a new Mercedes, of which there are many at public school staff parking lots.
Lousy pay, long hours, and lousy benefits are the reasons I agve you. You can ignore them if you want, but that is your ignorance.You did not read my post. That is further proof of your abject ignorance. Your post is about California's colleges. What does that have to do with public schools?

I have said that unless we wrest control of education back from the Democrat/Liberal government schools, as earlier Republicans pried their slaves away from them, the nation has no future.

"Coronavirus has parents looking at homeschooling
With the COVID-19 virus closing schools in China, South Korea, Italy, and the United States, parents are having to make a sudden and unexpected change in their children’s education. Most often, it means shifting education into the home.
This learning at home looks different in different places. In Hong Kong, the government ordered 800,000 students to take what the Wall Street Journal calls “a crash course in digital learning.”
In New York City, parents are already seeking out homeschooling resources that fit their children and their families in preparation for any school closings.
The freedom of parents to choose the kind of education that’s best for each child is something we’ve been advocating for more than 35 years.
Homeschool grads go to college, join the military, launch their own businesses, and start families. They serve in soup kitchens, run for office, fight fires, and give back to their communities in many other ways.
In fact, more than 1.7 million students are homeschooling in the U.S., according to the National Center for Education Statistics.If both parents are working, it is still possible to make homeschooling work through options such as alternating work schedules or one parent working from home. It takes creativity, commitment, and even saying, “No,” to some opportunities. But without the restriction of a traditional school-day schedule, families are able to carve out time together and even flex their homeschool schedule along with variable work schedules (such as healthcare providers or cross-country transport)."

I understand how important it is to simpleminded individuals like you to parrot the indoctrination, but perhaps no one ever told you that, no matter the metric, homeschooled students outperform your sort, the government schooled sort.
Standardized test results for 16,000 home educated children, grades K-12, were analyzed in 1994 by researcher Dr. Brian Ray. He found the nationwide grand mean in reading for homeschoolers was at the 79th percentile; for language and math, the 73rd percentile. This ranking means home-educated students performed better than approximately 77% of the sample population on whom the test was normed. Nearly 80% of homeschooled children achieved individual scores above the national average and 54.7% of the 16,000 homeschoolers achieved individual scores in the top quarter of the population, more than double the number of conventional school students who score in the top quarter. 1
A Harvard University (MA) admissions officer said most of their home-educated students "have done very well. They usually are very motivated in what they do." Results of the SAT and SAT II, an essay, an interview, and a letter of recommendation are the main requirements for home-educated applicants. "[Transcripts are] irrelevant because a transcript is basically a comparison to other students in the school."

I bet you wish your folks had loved you enough to take on the burden of homeschooling.
Perhaps there was a reason why they thought better of it......what does your psychiatrist say?

In New York City, parents are already seeking out homeschooling resources that fit their children and their families in preparation for any school closings.
The freedom of parents to choose the kind of education that’s best for each child is something we’ve been advocating for more than 35 years.
Homeschool grads go to college, join the military, launch their own businesses, and start families. They serve in soup kitchens, run for office, fight fires, and give back to their communities in many other ways.
In fact, more than 1.7 million students are homeschooling in the U.S., according to the National Center for Education Statistics.If both parents are working, it is still possible to make homeschooling work through options such as alternating work schedules or one parent working from home. It takes creativity, commitment, and even saying, “No,” to some opportunities. But without the restriction of a traditional school-day schedule, families are able to carve out time together and even flex their homeschool schedule along with variable work schedules (such as healthcare providers or cross-country transport)."
Coronavirus has parents looking at homeschooling
I understand how important it is to simpleminded individuals like you to parrot the indoctrination, but perhaps no one ever told you that, no matter the metric, homeschooled students outperform your sort, the government schooled sort.
Standardized test results for 16,000 home educated children, grades K-12, were analyzed in 1994 by researcher Dr. Brian Ray. He found the nationwide grand mean in reading for homeschoolers was at the 79th percentile; for language and math, the 73rd percentile. This ranking means home-educated students performed better than approximately 77% of the sample population on whom the test was normed. Nearly 80% of homeschooled children achieved individual scores above the national average and 54.7% of the 16,000 homeschoolers achieved individual scores in the top quarter of the population, more than double the number of conventional school students who score in the top quarter. 1
A Harvard University (MA) admissions officer said most of their home-educated students "have done very well. They usually are very motivated in what they do." Results of the SAT and SAT II, an essay, an interview, and a letter of recommendation are the main requirements for home-educated applicants. "[Transcripts are] irrelevant because a transcript is basically a comparison to other students in the school."

I bet you wish your folks had loved you enough to take on the burden of homeschooling.
Perhaps there was a reason why they thought better of it......what does your psychiatrist say?
