She Graduated with Honors but She Can't Read (opens in new tab)

I think this is a better explanation of the situation: https://www.cnn.com/2025/02/27/us/connecticut-aleysha-ortiz-...

It seems like she needed special ed assistance with reading that she unfortunately wasn't getting.

Should be noted her actual lawsuit did not mention anything about not being able to read, it's suing her case manager for bullying

The same evidence (the only evidence) could have been presented as:

Mississippi is doing great for its kids. We should all follow them.

Instead it’s completely unnecessarily frames as “the political side that I don’t like is ruining everything”. There are instances (too many, unfortunately) where this is true. This isn’t one of them. In comparable Blue/Red states (CA vs TX, NY vs FL) the blue states are doing better, even if u think the blue state performances are also inexcusable.

Have people become incapable of talking normally and need to force everything into an enemy/ally frame? Or is this just rage bait, or ironically, the author “virtue” signaling to their own political tribe

> In early education, teachers told her to “stay in a corner and sleep” or “draw pictures for them.” In high school, she relied on speech-to-text programs for every assignment. Teachers knew. Administrators knew. Nobody did anything. Now she’s a freshman at UConn studying public policy — and she still can’t read the textbooks.

Sounds like everyone else failed. Every single other person failed. A:Not(I)~>Fail(A).

That's nearly all of them (graduates)
