CALIFORNIA PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Our Overwhelmed California Public Schools
Complete article at: http://www.vdare.com/
California can never have a sound educational system as long as our borders are
open. No amount of school bond money can keep up with the numbers of children
who arrive in California each year. That is the bottom line. We can pretend
that the root cause is insufficient funds, poor teaching or lousy
infrastructure.
We can form blue ribbon panels like the Quality Education Commission to study
California schools. But in the end, it comes back to simply too many kids with
too many needs coming to California too fast. Consider as already spent the
$12.3 billion generated by Proposition 55. The $13.1 billion by Proposition 47
in 2002-less than two years ago! - is a distant memory. In Los Angeles, Measure
R-the third bond measure in seven years for the Los Angeles Unified School
District-will provide $3.87 billion for the construction of 50 new schools.
The open borders crisis exacerbates the already horrendous condition of
California schools. Hardly a correct decision regarding schools has been made
in the last four decades. On February 5th, PBS aired First to Worst, a
documentary that chronicles the dramatic fall of California schools over the
last generation from first in the nation to at or near the bottom.
