Another Look at an 8th Grade Education

Lone Pony offers an 8th Grade final exam from Kansas in 1895. I can't answer all the questions though I **think** I would pass it.

8th Grade students today really have it easy.

Scary "aint" it Shoprat? lol That is one of the reasons I try to "teach the hell out of my kids" everyday. (Sorry for the curse word.)

Another teacher and I banter that phrase around with pride. (Privately, of course.) It motivates us.

It scares me to think about other countries pulling ahead of us in educating our kids. That's what I'm fighting.
