Middle Township - I saw an ad on TV they used a high school student for an example that she would never become a doctor, lawyer, and more all because she or he could not pass a 8 grade equivalency exam. But, students like her and others still received A’s and B’s on their report card. They took it down. WHY??? Our educational system in America is very low in the world, But, we pay 4 times more per student. SO? Can you answer this problem! I, for one say too many chiefs and not enough Indians, as it was said back in the day. Translation! To many administrators being paid ridiculous Salaries, and not teachers
