Most kids I know can read at a third grade level before they start kindergarten. Though they have parents of privilege who have unfair access to kids books at the 99 cent store.

About 1852, public school became mandatory in Massachusetts. The kids had abou a 70% illiteracy rate.

Now, we spend 1.3 trillion a year on public education, 13 million at this school alone, and have a 77% illiteracy rate.

Big education has failed, big. The reason…..in my humble opinion, the parents belief in government to do the job and lack of incentive of parents to participate.

It used to be a FELONY to falsify Official Government Records, especially if it was done for Personal Gain.

School Records and Transcripts are “Official Government Records”

Somewhere, I forget, it is called the “soft bigotry of low expectations.”
