China has a higher literacy rate retard. You would be lowering it instead.

make them repeat the grade if they cant read at grade level. even if it takes 4 years of the same grade for some students, 75% will make it.

Repeal the Nog Amendments. Once you count them as 3/5 of a person again, you'll see the illiteracy rate drop a bit.
Massive deportations of illegal immigrants helps too.
Abolish the Department of Education.
Ban TikTok and other social media.

Or just start working. My life would be better off if I had gone right into the workforce as a child and started making money immediately.

Seriously now, you have to get parents involved in kids education. That is why Asians tend to do better than average. They usually get help from their parents, elder siblings or relatives.

Define “fun to read.” That is entirely arbitrary and meaningless. The current school system is already structured of books that are supposed to be fun for kids to read.

>>22853718

>>22853718
>Define “fun to read.”
Contemporary works with plots and themes that are interesting to the age group. Let the kids vote on what book to read. Maybe throw in a comic or a manga late in the school year as further incentive.

The goal is to convince them that reading is enjoyable, not to force them against their will, or they'll always be adverse to reading.

It’s not leftists. This country has been bourgeoisified. Half of all the jobs in this country are office jobs and the people that hire into want someone that has been socialized into their lifestyle. That’s why they want someone with a college degree. It’s a form of institutionalization, and if you don’t believe that, compare the people from your high school that went off to a good college and graduated and the way they speak and behave with the people who never went at all and ask yourself which one would get along in a half female have bourgeois male office.

>>22854203
If we’re judging just by IQ scores and literacy rates, they are indeed bright while most of the others are not. In the United States, the states with the highest literacy rates are New Hampshire, Vermont, Montana, etc. I wonder what they have in common…

Nope. Half of white Americans effectively have learning difficulties.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_literacy_rate
This is actually embarrassing. I didn't know before today. Even some third-world countries have higher literacy rates than USA.

The reason so many Americans are illiterate is that for years, they were literally not taught how to read. They were taught to guess words based on pictures. This podcasts explains it nicely:

https://features.apmreports.org/sold-a-story/

That, combined with the fact that many teachers are forbidden from giving kids grades lower than a C, means many kids graduate without being able to read.

At any rate leftists are useful idiots that push these policies for the benefit of special interests.

You guys shamelessly wanting to return to the 19th century is hilarious.
That time is over, anon. You can't go back.

Institute a national standardized program where people are forced to become proficient in the mind palace technique and have to memorize the constitution or something. Learning a second language is mandatory. Mandatory fitness programs. Nutritional and caloric standards for school lunches. Nationwide standardized testing in place. If you're under 18 it is illegal to use your phone forore than 1 hour a day like in China. If you're found to have IQ below 85 you get sterilized and put in a group home.

Is it possible to create books that will physically withstand nukes? I will work on those, distribute them, and then intentionally cause an incident

Why is it that these threads always focus on the US as being uniquely bad here when the UK is only one place higher? If anything, considering how large the US is, our literacy rate is more of an achievement than the UK's measly 99% for 94,058 sq mi.

Remove the current common core standards and restructure it in a way that actually helps students' strengths rather than pigeonholes them into the grade school equivalent of an MBA
Put more funding into the school system itself, especially in the rural south and inner city east coast.
Have less emphasis on grammar in weird silly sample texts and more emphasis on grammar and syntax in the context of books and stories that children are reading, so they see it in action better.
Western Canon is kind of a silly concept but in high school have some of those books become mandatory reading for E/LA classes. Stuff like Tolstoy, Dumas, More, etc.
Finally, teach students about the arts. Books are art as much as they are stories and narratives. To have children learn to appreciate artistry and creativity, they can appreciate the ability to put words onto paper. The emphasis on STEM shit is kinda important but there's way too many autists who don't give a shit about """""""culture"""""" because to them its nonsensical and doesn't have any direct tactile benefits.

Poorfag schools actually get more funding than richfag schools, the money just isn't being spent on students because the administration is corrupt. And there is no way to teach a class full of kids with mothers who smoke crack to love to read.

>>22855622
>higher criteria for teachers
Ghetto schools have long term substitutes or no teacher at all for some classes despite paying teachers.more than fancy schools. It's just that nobody wants to teach there because of the shitty violent kids.

>>22855554
Faulkner and Melville among others of course. I think reading works that are both in your native tongue and from your culture would be beneficial. It seems simple enough to me.

Easy. Fire all the teachers and kill the students who aren’t autodidacts

Best way to foster reading is to have parents read with their child.
So pay parents to read to and then with their children an hour a day. Either in classrooms after school or some other way. Have unannounced quizzes for the parent making them answer questions from the book once a month in return for the payments.

>>22853018
Copy Singapore's education system.

>>22854387
Ironic considering that if Texas broke off to be its own country it would be less white than the United States.

Plus, in reality the Boomers who push for Texit would absolutely lose their shit if close to half the population was actually being deported. Suddenly, their soaring wealth from their home values shit the bed because demand broke in half. All that revenue from high skill workers in the cities shits the bed and the median age jumps 10 years causing a massive labor shortage. One thing I've learned is that, while Boomers love their Manichean political narratives, love making politics into a religion, they love comfort even more. If push ever comes to shove on migration and it seriously messes with home values and inflation via wages jumping due to the supply shock they will instantly throw a fit. I mean , these are people who want a civil war over their government not focusing enough on them despite them having like 90% of the political offices and getting UBI and universal healthcare. Currently, seniors get like $3 trillion in transfer payments a year lol.

>lower the grade level standards significantly
>pay my self on the back and take a four year vacation

Make reading purely optional. If kids want to read, they'll go searching for books to read. No child should ever be forced to read sentimental schlock from the 1970s with ugly-looking illustrations just because it reminds teachers of their childhoods.
Also, make giveaways for books in all schools, but especially in schools located in lower-class neighborhoods. Let no parents ever have to pay a single cent for their childhood's education (aside from property taxes).
Make children learn a second language, preferably one that is remotely related to their mother tongue (such as Chinese or Arabic for English native speakers) and make them get in the habit of memorizing words, practicing pronunciation, and learning how to spell and look up words by ear.

>>22853018

Cope, texas is leaving and it is gonna be a new g20 economy and liberals are going to cry

Pay teachers an actual salary, but in return demand that they have at least a masters degree in their field, and make (or at least send) articles and give out conferences.
Give out courses to parents so they are better prepared to help out their kids and don't get into the mindset of "my kid's a good one, it's the teachers who are failing him".
If possible reduce class sizes as much as possible so that each student can better get the attention they need from their teacher.
Struggling students get sent to extra classes and more attention is placed on them to bring them up to speed.
Athletics and music are important parts of learning, as are the arts, maybe stop taking their funding so you can send more money to Israel or waste it in whatever the American government wastes money.
Allowing teachers to hit students might be needed in some cases.

Way I see it it's all a funding problem.

Serious question: Why does everyone need to know how to read?

Address the general apathy in education. Make student failure have more impact on their parents rather than just schools. Staggeringly high numbers of Americans view schools as state-funded daycare. In my experience, the majority of parents take the path of least resistance with regards to their child's discipline and academics. They would rather make excuses and drop buzzwords/race baits to get school administrators to back down when they talk about discipline and retention. I have seen it many many times, even at some of the "best" public schools in my region.

Had a kid that can't hardly read start moaning at girls to make them uncomfortable because he'd rather be doing hoodrat shit. Was told to give him a "classroom job" because his mom thought he just didn't feel welcomed. Kid still can't read, still harasses other kids. Probably going to end up in prison by 19.

Start holding both dog shit parents, teachers, administrators, and politicians accountable and watch students fall in line.

Design a "Media Pyramid" and push it hard in schools. It definitely won't work, but like the flawed food pyramid which preceeded this, it'll get stuck in people's consciousness. Guilt trip them and scare them, like in sex education and DARE. If you aren't literate, you'll be poor, ugly, pitiable, unfuckable, and a general loser worthy of contempt. Again, it basically won't work, but it'll stick for some. We're planting seeds of ideas here.

Either that or tyrannically pull the plug on entertainment. Get the NSA to design some "entertainment credit" system. You only get so much recreational screen time per week, unless you read and submit book reports to a bloated state bureau, which itself is employed with people so desperate for screens themselves that they get the job to accelerate their own rate of entertainment credits by reading other people's shitty paper reports all day.
