Probably a private Catholic school. I'm guessing all the kids from public school were discqualified when asked to spell constitution. I'm sure they wouldn't have ever seen or heard it before.

St. Mark's is a very prestigious non-sectarian private boys' school in Dallas.

I noticed that the winner's mother was a stay-at-home mother. I wonder how many of the past winners had a stay-at-home parent who was there to encourage them to focus on their studies and keep them out of trouble.

I've got some good news for you; our public school district north of Peoria, Dunlap requires students to pass a Constitution test to graduate from 8th grade.

So all is not lost.
