Mike Miles has a terrible track record if you ask anyone other than Mike Miles
"Only the best"
In Houston, Abbott appointed former charter school guy Mike Miles as the new superintendent, and Miles set to work implementing a new system of total control over education that he promised would improve student performance and close educational gaps. Modeled on a system he came up with for his charter schools, its name reflects the efficiency and clean straight lines of Brutalist architecture: the “New Education System” (NES). Eighty-five of Houston’s 274 campuses are currently in the system “voluntarily,” ...
Among other efficiencies, the system involves all teachers working from the same PowerPoint curriculum prepared for them each day, and extremely structured class periods. To keep the focus on learning the predigested materials, 28 of the NES schools determined to be most in need of improvement have converted the school libraries into “team centers,” where students who’ve stepped out of line will be sent to do their work, and also where other kids will work individually or in groups for “enrichment”...
n what reads like a news dispatch from a dystopian future novel, except without a charismatic young rebel who was born to lead everyone to freedom, the Houston Chronicle went along with Miles to visit some schools using The New Order (gift link) on the first day of school Monday. We learn that instead of wasting time with “‘what I did this summer’ activities or getting-to-know-you games,” the kids got promptly to work, all neat and orderly:
Students sat silently, pencils scratching, as they worked on the "demonstration of learning" worksheets that they'll be required to complete every day in their core classes. Teachers taught from PowerPoint presentations developed by HISD's central office, with a livestream of the class projected on an adjacent wall — the same stream a student would watch from a laptop were they to act out in class and be sent to one of the school's "Team Centers," some of which have replaced their school's libraries.
Happily, nobody had go to the team center for discipline Monday, because the classes themselves seem entirely punitive enough. In a 90-minute class, each day’s lesson is presented to the whole class, from the PowerPoint, and then they complete their “demonstrations of learning,” because that’s a noun in the New Conformity.
Students who need more time to demonstrate that they are learning anything stay the last 35 minutes of class with their teacher, while the students who got the idea or are actually well ahead of the day’s objective are sent to the Team Center to do additional work to make sure the lesson is embedded in their heads, or even to do more advanced work on the same stuff, with a “Learning Coach” to help out.
The idea is that by separating everyone up into groups, the kids who need more work will soon be working at grade level on that topic and can go to the former library too, but not to read. So take that, libs, the closed libraries aren’t only detention centers, because they’re also used every day by the kids doing enrichment, and there’s no way any kids would know exactly who’s in stir Team Center for discipline, no never

From what I see, they do excel at ing around and finding out.
Yeah, that race hustlin' bas Hussein..."If I had a son, he'd look just like this youngster." After the had sworn on the Good Book to be President for both White & Black Americans.
The capitalist oligarchy and they're cheap s the repugs want to destroy democracy to replace with capitalist fascism
see andreesen's recent Manifesto
the repug Anarchy in the house fits perfectly with the capitalist strategy of weakening, paralyzing government, with capitalists filling the power vacuum
You've lost the plot bro.
While your side wanted to cut the President's head off. Oh, you're a real outfit, you fellows are. Don't get your way,,,off with his head! Don't get your way,,,blow up the White House. Don't get your way,,,shoot him to death.
You're out of your in' minds.
Trump drove him insane.
"Suck at running things"
Liberals being laughed at on Planet Earth. Even Europe. Bad time to be
priority: climate, LGT and mixed borders.
I'm conservative/liberal. Depending on the issues. That illustrates they both fail. The West is a mess. But not incapable of rebound. Western Civilization relies on values. That makes us European. But we must respect our national culture. I love my Europe but I want my space.
Europeans are Liberal but won't sacrifice family, tradition or comfort for righteoness

Today's liberals. I'll be in Berlin soon being asked what happened. People like you.
If "Build the War" offended you.
Strap up what's coming in Europe. We are going far right & deporting.
Except you just lost Poland.
