How fitting that a school named after our profligate, post-achievement president is shutting down thanks to fiscal mismanagement and non-achievement.

R.I.P., Barack Obama Elementary School (hat tip: reader Peter):

"The state fiscal monitor who oversees financial operations in the school district Thursday morning ordered the closing of the Barack H. Obama Elementary School as of July 1."

Will those union members just be reassigned to other schools so they can damage them as well, or will they be laid off?

The will try and worm their way into the surrounding districts through crony anti-scholasticism.

Heehee, How fitting. A deadbeat school named after a deadbeat president, both big time failures.

Can it be called racist? A couple of years ago several failing schools in Seattle were being shut down and the parents we calling the shutdown racist.

That's sad. They should name this school in Detroit after him. It symbolizes perfectly what is happening to our country:

Asbury Park? LOL! Where is Springsteen and Jon Bon Jovi helping the locals in their old stomping grounds.

They could sing Gary US Bonds “This Little Girl is Mine” to raise money for the kids. Limousine Jersey Libs.

That’s a sad photo. Seeing the peeling paint, I could see where perhaps at one point they might have wanted to spruce it up a bit. But then someone brought out the EPA regulation book. Probably went something like “Prior to any major remodelling, tests of paint for lead content; tile floors for asbestos, and cabinetry for formaldhyde must be performed. No major remodelling can be performed if 0.00001% of above substances are found, unless all substances are removed.”
