Funny how at one time they were thinking about “year round” schools so that kids could get a better education and “catch up” to Asian students who beat the poop out of our students in math and science. I bet a million dollars that “year round” school would result in LOWER reading and comprehension scores for our students.
That's my favorite sentence in the whole article.
“Gov. Wilson?”
Is that Gov. Walker’s soccerball? ;p
It doesn’t really matter how poorly they do in school. If they can’t pass the entrance exam to the police force, we’ll just lower the acceptable standard to an ‘F’ and send them out on the streets to enforce laws they can’t read and assess fines they can’t add.

Me: “Did you pass the entrance exam, officer? No? Then I wasn’t speeding because you can’t add.”
