SUMMARY
What if the system everyone tells you to trust… just stopped making sense?
In this episode, Christy-Faith unpacks one of the most baffling education headlines yet: a public school district considering 21% a passing grade—and calling it “equity.”
She breaks down what’s really going on behind these grading changes, how they affect families across the country (not just in San Francisco), and why more and more parents are rethinking what a real education should look like.
This isn’t fear-mongering. It’s pattern recognition.
And if you’ve felt a nudge to step off the school system rollercoaster, this might be the moment to trust your gut.
Because sometimes the boldest move you can make… is walking away.
