Thanks, SBMom.
SMOOCH!
Again, being the disruptive that I am, I am going back to the original thread (shocking, eh?)
I am a fan of charter schools, I think they are marvelous. But until the 14 year olds stop having babies, and, this comes from first hand knowledge, spend less money on their nails for prom and more time with their children, public schools will continue to hurt.
I want anyone, and I mean anyone, to help me get a child with an IQ of 85, single parent home, and reading on a 3rd grade level in high school to graduate high school and enter college.
Perhaps those of you on the Omniscient Gov’t School list can help me, but I don’t see how you can make 85 cents a full dollar. (I would hope that the metaphor goes without explanation.)
