I meant to ask you is this a public school or a charter school?
A standard public school in a suburb of a major metropolitan city, similar in demographics to the high school I attended in the dark ages. The high school student body numbers about 3,500 kids in grades 9-12. The middle school serves about 1,300 kids in grades 6-8. My husband also attended public school, albeit a slightly smaller one.
That poster committed the logical fallacy of hasty generalization, and besides, cutting funds for public education is not necessarily a bad thing, especially if money is being wasted.
Liberals such of yourself love to obscure reality and only conduct skin deep analysis.
Maybe Harrier won't be your neighbor in the future, though he would like to think that not everyone in your neck of the woods is so intellectually shallow.

I knew about the differences in what the suburban schools teaches verses the inner city schools when I took my oldest out of the inner city school and placed him in a suburban school when we moved, but I did not realize that it was different in the rest of the country as well. So if the majority of the U.S population lives in cities how many of our childrern are not being educated properly. It makes you wonder does'nt it?
Budget cuts to public education do not equate to dumbing down standards.
Since a Republican is the governor, he is willing to bet that education is being improved in PA.
Harrier doesn't know what the situation is in PA, but usually cuts are made when liberal school administrators are wasting taxpayer money.
Contrary to common liberal dogma, throwing taxpayer money at a problem does not solve it.
Your logic, such as it is, FAILS.
Are you even paying attention? We just compared something as simple as geography between states that are ironically right next to each other, but yet you are totally clueless that there is a difference in what our children are being taught. You just admitted that you know nothing about what is going on in Pa. but yet you still blindly defend a man that you don't know because he is a republican I guess that you did not know that the people of Pa. are going to bounce his dry corrupt azz right out of Harrisburg (capital of Pa. if you did not know) in the next election.
I guess that you think that no child left behind was a great ideal as well
Harrier doesn't watch Fox News, so he has no comment on that.
He does know that many liberals accept the lies that MSNBC promulgates.
Harrier does not watch Fox news because the reception is not that good in the psychiatric ward or maybe because it is med time when they come on.
