Nearly 60% Flunk Eighth Grade -- At One School!

44 Of 77 Students At Bradwell Elementary Did Not Pass Eighth Grade.



CBS 2's Jim Williams of children are falling through the cracks at one Chicago Public School.


How does this surprise anyone. This is a Public "Government" School.

People seem so surprised when they see stories like this. It happens all the time. There are few good teachers out there, and the few good ones we do have are restricted from doing their job because the Union will come down on them like a load of bricks.

Did you ever watch John Stossels report "Stupid in America" on 20/20 a few years ago?


Here in Georgia, in Clayton County, the schools and teachers were so bad, they lost their accreditation last year. Schools in Spaulding County went through a controversy several years back where 80% of graduates qualified for college funding by averaging a "B" grade through-out the year, and once tested in college, got grade averages of "D". The teachers to help get a pay raise fudged grades and passed kids that should have gone to summer school.

If Your an American and you can read, thank good parenting or a good teacher.
If you can read in English, thank a Soldier.

Since you can read...Read the Constitution, and ask a simple question...Why the hell are we tolerating Socialism in America, a.k.a. (change we can believe in).
