“U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan struck back by vaguely suggesting that the federal government may now punish Oklahoma. Duncan asserted that ‘40 percent of high school graduates’ in Oklahoma ‘have to take remedial classes when they go to college’ and only 25 percent of Oklahoma’s eighth-graders in math are ‘proficient.’”

Arne, you Big Government dunce—you need to reenroll in the 6th grade. If the District of Corruption is so good at setting standards, then we should hold the achievement level of the students in D.C. out as the gold standard, right?

Kill Commie Core now!

Ms Duncan , you Big Government dunce, you need to enroll in 6th grade for remedial classes in English grammar.

There, fixed!

Or 75% of Oklahoma’s eighth-graders are not ‘proficient’ in math.

Arne Duncan's tortured syntax displays her ineptitude with the English language.
