"Why it was ever stopped, I can't imagine." It was stopped by Leftist/Liberal administrators in total control of our educational systems -- to INTENTIONALLY impede the education of our children..
Leftists/Liberals require an uneducated citizenry to buy the bullsqat they're selling.... The public must be dumbed down, made dependent on Government and taught only to repeat the inane cliches of the left...
That's why our children are NOT being taught in the most effective manner possible to read --- they might read HISTORY and actually learn the truth...

That's pretty much my take as well, but over the last twenty years I've come to realize that the RP is just as willing to see kids fail as the left is.
Look, I know we throw more money at education all the time, but lets be serious. Do we go after the teachers unions? Do we dismantle the DoE? For all the hoopla, test scores only go up by hook or by crook. Five to ten later and we're all shocked to find that our kids still aren't learning.
I'm sorry, but the truth hurts. The people I have supported have allowed this to continue. I'm not happy about it.
