The key years are grades 3 to 7. That is when the brain is developed and set to learn more abstract and complex subjects like algebra and physical science in 9th and 10th grades.
So 1st and 2nd grades can be neglected some, but the student needs to be on the right path of learning by 3rd grade.
And by 8th grade, essentially a well developed student is on autopilot as far as learning. They just need to be adequately challenged and instructed in school.

NY teacher's union is trying to just give high school diplomas for stuff unrelated to actual learning.

I thought it was some kind of sick joke but over the years "mental health" spread to so many private sectors to a level that now its is promoted to "mental health month". Its really creepy to see these signs around for a month long! This is clearly a scam to do a favor to unemployed grocery store workers (TM@WookieMan ;) acts as "therapists" ;)
At this rate, CA could potentially declare all residents are "mental patents" at some point!
Not sure if this scam spread to other states to loot them as well by labeling "mental health patents". Health scare industry is a full of scams.

Now the teachers unions have managed to also fuck over working parents. People with jobs are expected to quit them to stay home with the kids and homeschool them. Regardless of their budgets of course. The only thing that matters to the teachers is that they get to stay home and still get paid.
Now the LA Unified School District has authorized free daycare for teachers who are parents, so they have someplace other than home (which is where they will be) to send their rug rats so they won’t have to care for them while “teaching online” everyone else’s kids who don’t get free day care.
In my neighborhood there are several gyms which have opened as daycare/schools able to provide daycare for school aged kids with staff who can help the kids with their online lessons. This costs $155-200/week and goes until 3PM same as a regular school day. Working parents who can’t be home with their kids to help them are expected to shell out $650-800/month per kid to “educate” their kids while public schools we all pay for are shuttered because teachers are scared of Covid. But NOT too scared to send their own kids to day cares as long as the school district pays for that!
Fuck teachers unions. Seriously.

It’s in the article, buried:
“Teachers also will be provided with child care.”
