Kansas City MO is the last few years closed half of their public High Schools. Maybe they should close the rest. If you tested the East HS students I am sure you would find an average performance at the level of a head of cabbage.
All that is happening there is that students are being further radicalized by black racists, rotten goons protected by their rotten unions.
All a parent can do is get out of that hellhole. No matter how much money is spent or what is done for them all that comes out is hostility. Leave then and let them rot. This is the same school system that was given $4 Billion, which the schools used on Olympic pools, start-f-the-art theater buildings, and every conceivable perk that the wealthiest school systems in the US might have one or two of... and their test scores didn't change at all... and now half of them are closed. Liberalism at work, once again.
Exactly! You can't throw money at the problem. The people are the problem. If a person wants to save their children they have to get them away from that system. Most people who could left.
I wish the children and grandchildren of the social engineers who start all this were the ones getting insulted, beaten or burned. You can bet their kids were far away from that kind of situation. Public schools aren't good enough for the Obama kids and he is right. The problem is they are not good enough for anybody.
