And there are still TONS of kids who don't even make it out of high school - I mean education is really hurting right now - and No Child Left Behind!?! A CROCK!!!
My sister is a teacher - and it SUCKS right now - as we speak she's missed a whole week of teaching because of these new (and useless) standardized tests...it's such a crock.....especially since it's under funded or not funded at all - education just needs a HUGE overhaul...
