Public Schools
Here's a bit from Neil Boortz about our quality public schools.

They’ve been having a bit of a problem in New York. It seems that New York government school students can’t pass that pesky math competency test. Now they’ve killed the messenger. The state’s testing director has lost her job. Now that makes sense, doesn’t it?

Here’s what an unnamed spokesman for New York education authorities had to say. 'Clearly, it is a disservice to public schools to give tests whose results imply students aren't learning essential skills. Now that the state's testing director is gone, we can offer an exam that more accurately reflects what students are really learning.”

The problem is this current test does accurately reflect what the students are learning. Little .. maybe nothing. The solution for government schools? When students can’t pass the test, fire the person responsible for the test and then make them easier. As stupid as parents are these days, they’ll certainly buy it.
