They're pretty good in my area. My daughter went to public school her whole life. She was on the honor roll all 4 years. She got a 33 on the ACT, a 1390 combined on the SAT's, and is currently majoring in Electrical Engineering. Despite the examples quoted in this posting, there's plenty of public schools out there that do a fine job.

Congratulations to you and your daughter. I would imagine you had more to do with the academic achievement that did the school. But the point of the article, as I read it, was the rampant political correctness that allows such egregious examples to occur. This is prevalent in all government schools and the NEA is making sure of it.
