The Biden administration is seeking to restore questions about accusations of sexual misconduct by school staff to an upcoming Civil Rights Data Collection, after recently proposing to eliminate them, a move that drew high-profile criticism.
Last month, the U.S. Department of Education said it planned to eliminate several questions from the nationwide data collection for the 2021-22 school year dealing with allegations of sexual assault and rape committed by educators and other K-12 staff.
However, in materials released Monday, the Education Department said it was withdrawing the proposed Civil Rights Data Collection and issuing a new one for public comment that includes those questions about alleged sexual misconduct by K-12 staff.
The department said it reversed course after “further reflection” but did not provide any additional explanation. News that the Biden administration wanted to stop collection information about such allegations stirred opposition from conservatives, who alleged that the move amounted to covering up these incidents in schools.

Perhaps I’m slow, does it not imply they want to retire data on the number of allegations?
Data collection, under last week's proposal, would continue to include the number of documented incidents at a given school, but would retire Trump-era reporting on "rape or attempted rape, or sexual assault" allegations that were followed by "a resignation or retirement prior to final discipline or termination."
So I see that the number is recorded, but not if the perpetrator, or accused retired or resigns?

The Catholic Church and Penn State are nothing compared to what has been covered up in American public schools.
The problem is that teachers act as the shepherds of the plebs for the system. They are a protected class. If they go down, the cascade will be the undoing of the entire control apparatus. When you grant people authority over children, you attract predators, but the system is too concerned over optics to even admit there is a problem. There is a problem.

Teachers being stopped from abusing kids is more damaging to society than priests being stopped from abusing kids?

Right on. Keep the focus on Joe Biden and Democrats attempting to keep their plans hidden from the public. Don't continue demonstrating to them that we're as stupid as we have been in the past.
