The state of New York recently passed a law requiring government school teachers to take a literacy test, but repealed it the following year because 36 percent of white teachers failed the test on the first try, while 54 percent of Hispanic teachers and 59 percent of black teachers failed.

Then, they must not be qualified and shouldn’t be teaching!

Then MA Gov. Mittens had to continually give mulligans to a city's education superintendent. The guy was from PR, and couldn't pass the English portion of the test for "teaching" personnel in the state.

About 15 years ago, a Southern state discovered that its main instate source of teachers was essentially little more than a diploma mill.

They couldn't fire those that failed the re-exam because of the lack of competent applicants, and they needed "babysitters" for the existing "young-skulls-full-of-mush" then in the pipeline.
