They’re going to do it anyway. Why not give classes on how to cheat on tests?

And then they wonder why Sandy Springs and the rest of the “plantation” deserters have incorporated their cities, Ironically enough, the “plantation massers” are now suing those cities trying to get them back on the “plantation”.

What exactly was the Department of Education designed to do? What exactly does it do? /s

When NJ schools do not meet standards the state takes over. Trenton, Jersey city.

Texas influences text book contents.

Hey, they were just answering their critics. Their critics demanded accountability—show us test scores so we’ll know how well the students are doing.

And they delivered the test scores—government school style.

Government schools are like government anything—FAIL.

Two interesting details to this story is first of all, it was a newspaper investigation that touched off the probe.

The other is a child that went from the worst reader in the class to an easy pass in a subsequent assessment, which her mother questioned, but was brushed off by the school authorities. The mother is upset because now the kid is having a tough time, being in a higher grade than she should be.

At least they aren't the 80% in NYC who graduated but cannot read. No tests caught that?

Bloomberg hasn't commented, has he? Why do the firefighters & police allow the teachers to be linked with them? Is it because the teachers are the top source for money for the Democrats?

Said a parent of her child, “...in ninth grade, reading at a fifth-grade level.”

Nothing unusual about that. Check the slack jawed, glazed eyed, ‘graduates’ slouching across the stage at the next graduation ceremony at all too many pooblik screwel collectives in your community.

Try three at random, then quibble.

When teachers take money and not do not educate, they are committing fraud, improper enrichment, ad nauseam. Sue ‘the commies.

If they have been teaching communism as Bill Ayres suggested, their teaching is a form of advocacy. If they have worked to advance communism, and their classroom efforts make this irrefutably clear, they their classroom activities have been treasonous.

TREASONOUS is the word, as advancing communism in the classroom is giving aid and comfort to our enemies.

For the forgetful, or the deliberately devious/duplicous, communism IS America's enemy.

And the politicos and the edukators would only make you believe all we need to do is pay them more money to solve our education woes. And the only result is more corruption and ineptitude.

And these racists complain about ‘Super-white majority’ cities...

Post 11 should have been:

SAID THE PARENT OF THE TEACHERS,

Said a parent of her child, “...in ninth grade, reading at a fifth-grade level.”
Nothing unusual about that. Check the slack jawed, glazed eyed, ‘graduates’ slouching across the stage at the next graduation ceremony at all too many Pooblik Srewel Collectives in your community.

TREASONOUS is the word, as advancing communism in the classroom is giving aid and comfort to our enemies.
For the forgetful, or the deliberately devious/deceptive, communism IS America’s enemy.
A wholesale hanging would improve the faculty performance across the entire spectrum of American educational institutions, from grade school through graduate schools. As for whines about replacing those hanged ‘educators’, there are many non-commies in America willing and able to educate. They can’t/won’t educate when a communist union runs the public schools and commies dominate the colleges and universities.

As for loss of scientific capability from hanging the treasonous on faculty throughout American colleges and universities, as in the secondary schools – there are many capable of educating on college and graduate school level who are not “de facto commies”.

Oh, yeah – don’t forget that if a major doesn’t require calculus, the faculty are probably commies. Why calculus as an indicator? Because hard science majors have a real world reality check all through their careers. Did their engineering calculations result in a bridge that worked or collapsed? Did the airplane they designed fly or crash? Did the medicine they developed cure the patients or was it another Thalidomide?
Communism is treason. Remove it from America’s education facilities or lose the American Republic.
PS Islam is also antithetical to, and irreconcilable with, America – soooo, Islam is also treason.

Sorry, but copied the wrong file. My excuse is too much hemoglobin in my caffeine stream.

And I am sticking to that.

They are a great money-maker, but more importantly they are aligned against those who work in the private sector. A lot of intermarriage between those groups, with good reason; they are parasites attached to the same host, and all are intent on bleeding it dry.

“When teachers take money and do not educate, they are committing fraud, improper enrichment, ad nauseam.”

That is why a lot of NJ taxpayers are voting down their school budgets; they are wisening to the fact that spending $7K+ annually in school taxes is resulting in semi-literate students (who view themselves as educated). I know older people grumbling about younger people is as old as the hills, but anyone over 50 who speaks at any length to anyone under 30 is shocked by their ignorance on a whole range of issues. The ignorance of the ghettoes has now become mainstream, be it math, English, science, history, civics, whatever.

In the meantime we import English-speaking Asians because an increasing number of American “workers” can’t read or write.

Can’t have vouchers in the District of Columbia. Some of those urban youth might apply to Sidwell Friends.
