California government schools are failures--and getting worse--even with more money thrown at schools.
This is the result of Democrats and unions owning our schools:
"Fifteen states saw a decline in their high school graduation rates from 1997 to 2007, and California, with a drop of 4.7 percentage points, from 67.4 to 62.7 percent, was the second worst, behind Nevada, according to Education Weeks latest Diplomas Count.
The national dropout rate of 68.8 percent in 2007 was 3.1 percentage points higher than in 1997, though there was a slight decrease from 2006. Although Californias graduation rate lagged the national average in 2007 by a full 6.1 percentage points, each of its major racial and ethnic subgroups actually outperformed students nationwide in 2007."
Time to thrown the bums out--vouchers, charter schools and unions be allowed the same respect in a school as the African Violet Society--at least the Society doesn't demand bribes from teachers.
Embarrassed yet by unions and government schools?
