Hillary Clinton may be planning to close a lot of schools. At a town hall event today in Keota, Iowa, Clinton said she would keep open "better than average" schools:
"This school district and these schools throughout Iowa are doing a better than average job," Clinton told the crowd. "Now, I wouldn't keep any school open that wasn't doing a better than average job. If a school's not doing a good job, then you know it may not be good for the kids.

Anything she says is a lie anyway, so it really doesn’t need to make any sense.
So the chronic liar and malignant criminal would close half the schools. That should prove interesting. What a fat oaf.
I’m shocked too. Imagine, 50% of our schools are below average. Shocked, I tell ya’.
If all schools are made to be equally bad, none are below average.
Of course she can say this, because, at the behest of the teachers’ unions, she will use executive orders via the federal education department to force schools to use teacher evaluation systems that - magically - will “prove” that no teachers are below average and, therefore, that there are no schools that are below average.
Then the next year she has to close half of the remaining schools. After five years there won’t be many schools left. Eventually you get down to one that is just average. Will she close that one too?
Garrison Keillor, please pick up the white courtesy phone. Garrison Keillor, please...
That would be the Democrat half.
Who thinks she will do anything but run around the world collecting money for favors from our state enemies?
Very astute. Also, socialism summed up.
I’m shocked too. Imagine, 50% of our schools are below average. Shocked, I tell ya’.

How the hell did we ever allow this to come about. Why can’t they ALL be made above average? Hillary will do that for us, I’m sure. /sarc
The funny thing is that Hillary’s audience likely thought she was being profound and decisive instead of the idiot savant (a genius only with regurgitating talking points) she actually is.
at least when Garrison Keillor did it,
it was funny
(Lake Woebegon, where all the children are “above average”)
Hillary is a BAD joke, needs to be retired ASAP
Ok. She closes the schools that aren’t doing better than average. What next? What does she do with all the kids out of school?
I don’t think she has consulted with the teacher’s unions on this.
Yes, magically every student is like the children in Lake Wobegon.
That takes away the teacher’s vote. Stick a fork in her and call her done.
threatens to close nearly half of U.S. schools.
She's just cut the legs out from under her rubberstamp union goon bosses, and handed another 10 points to Trump. Thanks Lorianne.
“Well, that’s the news from Lake Wobegon, where all the women are strong, all the men are good looking, and all the children are above average.”
Close half each year, I love it! Won’t take long till they’re out of gubmint schools.
