I KNOW THE REASON, BUT THEN AGAIN I ASK "WHY IS IT OK TO SPEND MORE PER STUDENT ON SOME STUDENTS AND NOT OTHERS? I KNOW WHY THEY DO IT, BUT IS IT RIGHT? DISCRIMINATORY? AND DOES THIS MEAN THEY DON'T NEED TEACHERS ANYMORE, JUST SUPERVISORS? WOW

I see that they are not educationg parents about what the "Commen Core" does. "Commen Core" is taking text books and lectures out of schools and only allowing computers with basic explaination to teach our children. Its already started at Jacksonville High School. Not all of the text books have been removed but some have. This is another POS and BS process our good ol president is implementing
