How to Create Failing Schools
Mike Deshotels of Louisiana has figured out how the scheme works.
Create a program that rates all schools by a standard that assures that half will be above the standard and half will be below.
Of course, schools that enroll affluent students will appear largely in the top half, and schools that enroll poor students will rank largely in the bottom half.
Declare those in the bottom half to be failing schools.
Privatize those schools.
Start over.
