Actually, Back in the Day, those with real problems were moved to another class, where they could be taught at the levels they were able to handle. Not interfering, sorry to sound hateful, with the main stream students. Why is that not happening any longer? Can't afford Special Education do be done properly? Screw that, it costs a lot more to screw up a whole class for the benefit of a couple of kids. Yet those kids need special help, give it to them, but keep them out of the 25 kid classrooms. I apologize to my ultra liberal friends, but this is nonsense.

Actually, this is what separates progressives from true liberals. Progressives have no issue with tracking at all. It hurts everyone when abilities are not gauged and accommodations made. True liberals think that just throwing everyone together helps everybody, but in a learning environment, it does not. Teachers can only teach as fast as the slowest student.
