My Daddy always spoke out against a “cult of mediocrity”. But today’s schools have gotten much worse than what he saw in his day.
May he rest in peace.
We know that money is not the answer. Many of our big cities spend more per capita on education than elsewhere in the country. I heard Wash. DC was at the very top. But, for spending the most money, these school districts are getting some of the worst results. Yet, liberal apologists continually demand more “resources” for these failing schools. When they are already getting more money than successful schools elsewhere, how can this be? Isn’t this a disconnect?
