RE: Dept. of Education HURTS students.

Can anyone tell me how America’s educational system as a whole fared BEFORE and AFTER the Dept. of Education was formed?

I would like to see some objective statistics also. All I see is that in our City (NY State) is now a strange dance between the union, the pathetic school board, the state, and the Feds. They spend $23,000 per student/year, yet 50% of the kids fail to graduate. There is a constant search for money from Washington, and at the same time, a constant griping about bureaucracy from Washington. The union battles for every single outsized benefit. There is no responsibility anywhere. The fact they are "in education" seems secondary to everyone.
