Politically Correct Ignorance

Great education news from the Louisville Courier-Journal:
On Monday, Jefferson County Board of Education members held a work session on a proposal to add gender identity and expression to official policies on equal opportunity, discrimination and harassment.

This is a good thing. All this talk about "ability" and "performance" are elitist anyway, because some kids do better than others, and that's just not fair. So we should instead tell kids they're special for whatever reason they pick.

JCPS also has some of the best schools in the state. Unlike private schools, they can't kick kids out or push them out if they want to pad their college test scores.
