Your confidence and a buck get em a donut. You're so confident because you just look at em. I employ em'. Have for years. I also know how to read test scores. The more we spend, the dumber they get. As long as the current system stays in place, NOTHING will change.

See above. Maybe I should turn em away, eh?

PS, as an employer I have a bird's eye view on how well these kids are prepared to face the future. It ain't pretty.
