Why fix the schools…

…when you can just “fix” the law?

The Department of Education estimates the number of schools not meeting targets will skyrocket from 37 to 82 percent in 2011 because states are toughening their standards to meet the requirements of the law. The schools will face sanctions ranging from offering tutoring to closing their doors.

“No Child Left Behind is broken and we need to fix it now, cialis thumb ” Duncan said in a statement. “This law has created a thousand ways for schools to fail and very few ways to help them succeed.”

I wish I could say I was surprised that there won’t be even a hint of shame from the educational system and its political apologists.
