This is exactly why Christian Parents that possibly can, choose to homeschool.

By and large, publik skools are producing a generation of useful idiots.

Great post and comment! BTTT!

That is the best they can be.

It also has to do with maintaining funding, No child Left Behind incentivizes, more than ever, grade inflation and false attendance records.

[Hoodat]

It’s the bigotry of low expectations.

Is this the ursurper’s old neighborhood school where his girls would be going?

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

This kind of BS is exactly why certain groups want the SAT dropped as a screening tool for college entry. It sorts out the educated from those who merely graduated by virtue of asinine policies. Too bad that level of filtering doesn't apply to the ballot box.

Same thing is going on in Atlanta schools.

Nice that my daughter, in private school, has to compete for college admissions with the artifically-inflated GPAs of the government schoolers.

I see the government bail out now extends to grades in elementary school.

Same message: hard work and playing by the rules is for suckers.

Don’t you just love this “Everybody Gets A Trophy” America?

Isn’t this former home of the current leader of the Federal Education Dept?

You should really qualify that statement as URBAN public schools. I know of many great rural school districts, try painting with a thinner brush.
