How come there is no real reporting on how many kids were not logging on? Test scores? What is the data?
This was all an unforced error. The teachers just didn't want to go to work.
Maybe people in the big cities will finally come to the realization that teachers' unions don't care about educating children. It would be a great result if the states defunded the public schools over this disaster and allowed vouchers on a big scale.
