I simply love the headline from Bloomberg. They infer that SAT scores in the US declined BECAUSE more kids took the test. Test scores declined because we are raising a nation of dumbasses. Our schools are a complete and utter failure. America is home to millions of stupid parents who are raising millions of stupid kids. Every kid in this country has a cell phone, iPod, computer, TV and 50 other electronic gadgets and they can’t f*%$ing read or make change from a dollar bill.
The SAT score for reading was the lowest in history. The math SAT score hasn’t risen in 11 years. The new writing SAT score declined every year since its inception in 2007. The Department of Education was created in 1979 and has spent hundreds of billions in the last three decades making our kids stupider.
I love how the article soft pedals the issue of “diversity”. Below is the link to the report. The facts are that black kids are dumb on average and probably can’t tie their shoes. Table 8 tells you everything you need to know.
Asians: Reading – 517; Math – 595; Writing – 528
Whites: Reading – 528; Math – 535; Writing – 516
Blacks: Reading – 428; Math – 427; Writing – 417
Hispanics: Reading – 451; Math – 462; Writing – 444
How much more money are we going to shovel to minorities to try and make them smart? This isn’t just a Democratic problem either. George Bush and his no child left behind bullshit has failed. Guess what? Being smart requires you to read books. It requires you to think. It requires parents who insist that their children go to school, do their homework, and study. It is clear that parents across this country don’t give a crap about the education of their children.
If ignorance is bliss, this country has cornered the market on bliss.

Gee, you mean the Wicomico County Educators might be wrong? They say you need to spend billions and billions of dollars on new mausoleums in order to provide better education. Look at the achievement of the new Bennett Sr. building; it directly raised SAT scores by - how much?
NCLB was a Ted Kennedy bill. Look it up.
I'm with you on this one!
Amen,nuf said!
I wasn't aware that "stupider" was a word. I find it inappropriate to state such a generalization about black kids.
I quote: "The facts are that black kids are dumb on average and probably can't tie their shoes."

This statement seems to imply that race has something to do with intelligence. WOW.
I am not a teacher or student and for you folks crying we need better teachers i want to tell you we need better students. The kids today only know how to text, play video games and some of them are good at converting an ounce to grams. The NCLB act is like one bad apple to distract the whole class.
2:06, the data reported IS about Race, can’t you read?
It is a proven fact that if an “African American” scores high on an IQ test, SAT, or other form of testing, he or she has white blood in their family!
As far as the dummying down of America to accommodate Blacks in our schools, just look at the requirement of what grade average you need to keep up here in Wicomico County to play sports, a 1.0 !!! Who do you think that was set for????
WHAT??? 1.0 to play sports. What a stinking joke. They should have a solid 2.0 min. (pref. 2.5). It didn't cost billions when we were in school in the 60's-70's. It took parental involvement & a no B.S. attitude. Kids were held accountable for their actions. Mess up & you got in trouble in school and again when you got home. You didn't get an I-pod.
And we have republican candidates who think ignorance is a virtue.
A key word in the article is "Parents"
No one commenting here has made any mention of the responsibility of parents in the downward slide of this nation's education level, not to mention our moral standards.
It's al part of the communist plan. How do you think we wound up with what we have for a commander in chief?
You know I was just thinking if most of our kids are dumb, then they must have stupid parents! These are the same parents that voted for Obama.That explains everything!
Public Education is absolutely successful.
You simply don't understand how they define success. Rather, you don't understand the PURPOSE of Public Education.
Refer: Dupont, Rockefeller, and Ford Foundations
Get it right guys...don't you remember that the local NAACP worked with the BOE to have it raised from 1.5 to a 2.0.
