The completed assignment in the article is a run-on sentence with multiple errors. Maybe the students are in remedial English and don’t realize it.

yeah i would say the assignment is appropriate for that student’s ability level. the students quoted as saying they aren’t being challenged should be in honors/AP if that’s what they desire

Ny state released a ranking of all nys high schools this month. One district had only 13% of students proficient in English and 18% in math. Blame it on remote learning but either way some kids are way behind

Maybe if I didn’t go their I would have had a proper education in reading. When they wrote “the Midwood school” I thought they meant Midwood hs.
