Schools have been doing that for decades simply by lowering standards. Most middle/high school kids can't read at the 5th grade level. So, instead of remediation they simply down-grade what they teach. If kids won't do homework schools ban homework. Principals 'conference' with teachers that don't follow school board 'recommendations' on lower standards etc. etc. And discipline is gone from a majority of schools.
