San Francisco Tried This INSANE Grading Policy—It Backfired Fast

San Francisco's Board of Education proposed a radical “Grading for Equity” policy that would have eliminated homework and allowed students to pass with scores as low as 21%. But after swift backlash from parents, educators, and even the mayor, the plan was paused just 24 hours later.

In this episode, Phil (@californiaunderground) and Camille break down the controversial plan, how public pressure made a difference, and what this says about the state of education in California. Is this equity—or just lowering the bar for everyone?

🎙 Featuring: Phil from California Underground & Camille Bethany
📍 Topic: SFUSD’s grading proposal, public school reform, homeschooling insights
🧠 Keywords: San Francisco grading policy, grading for equity, public education reform, homeschool perspective, California schools, SFUSD controversy
