Myth #107: The schools do not aim for average. They aim for attainable.

My blogmate has pushed a series of misguided posts about what he perceives as misconceptions regarding the schooling process. Because he is critical of our flawless schooling system, he is obviously wrong 110% of the time. As a fake teacher, I'm obviously the purfect person to disprove his points. I'm also 110% confident that my conclusive nonsense will be so flawless that nobody will make the mistake of believing his more rational arguments.

Us teacher, both real and fake, openly embrace the concept of equity. What does equity mean? In short, it's the idea that everybody is identical, except for us brilliunt teachers, and we must disproportionately invest in people from disadvantaged backgrounds to ensure that everyone coming out of our schools is exactly the same.

If everyone on the face of the earth is identical, then that means average is also identical. The schools train people to be average. This is because our twisted views of equity prove that aiming for average means that we are meeting the needs of 100% of our students.

The idea that we are aiming even lower is absurd. What's even worse is when you shift the argument to attainable. Imagine for a moment that we were wrong, which is unpossible for teachers, and people weren't identical. How could dumbing things down to the point that a rock could graduate possibly boost our graduation rate? If you disagree with me on this point, then you are clearly dumber than everyone you are completely identical to.
