Kid starting college has finished/"graduated" from High School, correct?

That means they have had > $120,000 spent on them by twelfth grade. AND THEY CAN'T COUNT!!

Fire every teacher and start over (with vouchers if you want them to learn anything).

I like the direction Hillsdale college has taken.

They no longer offer teaching degrees without a 4 year degree in something solid. We have too many teaches who know how to teach but no nothing about the subjects they teach.

The teachers and principals should be ***criminally***charged for fraud for having LIED to the taxpayers, the student, and his parents on **official** government documents ( report cards and high school diploma).

Also....The teachers and principals should be **sued** silly by aggressive malpractice attorneys. Teachers and principals do have malpractice insurance. In any other profession it is **MALPRACTICE*** to lie to a client or patient and fraudulently fill out government forms.

By the way, my own children were in college before they were old enough to drive, therefore, I met **MANY** community college students ( high school graduates) who were literally learning how to add and subtract two digit numbers,, and the multiplication and division algorithms were still a complete mystery to them. For these students to have gone so far as to GRADUATE from high school they had to have had teachers and principals who ** CRIMINALLY**LIED **to the taxpayer, the student, and the parents.

Yeah! I am yelling. I am disgusted. Where are the class action attorneys when kids really need them?
