It's midday and midweek in January, a time when most school-age children are in a classroom learning the day's math or reading lesson.

Give me a break!!!

Test scores from most states show that public school kids are not learning math or reading. In fact, many teachers are having trouble with these subjects.

Quite right; generous, at that. Then let's try it again:

It's midday and midweek in January, a time when most school-age children are in a classroom learning that they are global citizens, that the Earth is heating up due to their Daddy's car, that only the Stat truly cares about them, that they are simply high-tech animals, that values are relative and in flux, that "absolute truth" is a concept believed only by bigots and tyrants, that the Bible is irrelevant at best and full of myths and lies at worst, and learning to feel good about themselves — no matter what they do, or don't do.

Better? (Yes.)
