I have two nephews schooled in the Boulder Colorado public schools. Both have Physics PHDs from MIT. Someone was doing something right. |

Some do it right but many are doing it wrong. A smart kid is going to get his education, it's the average that aren't. |

Why attempot to lie about it, Neutral. You have NEVER posted any credible evdence that high school graduates could not do the following: 1) Balance a check book 2) Read and understand instructions 3) Complete a job application. |

On second thought, I'm not going to help you continue your childish ignorant game.

Perhaps in the metro areas, but again my personal experience dealing with kids from rural Missouri has been heart lifting. I have been encouraged emensely dealing with the various youth groups. |

A couple of schools don't make a school system. I can name some very good schools in this area too. Overall the kids aren't getting the education they need. |

Well, ok. I would like to think what I have witnessed is an example of rural Missouri in general. |

Maybe you have, but rural MO is only a very small part of the system. |

I guess this is one more reason choosing Missouri as my retirement home was the right one. |

IOW, you lied about having post any credible evidence that high school graduates could not do the following: 1) Balance a check book 2) Read and understand instructions 3) Complete a job application. Because such credible evidence is not available, you just label the request for such evidence a "childish ignorant game." What a hoot you are when you are cornered. |
