Im sitting here on my 2000 dollar mac laptop in Pascack Valley High School and what I'm reading is truly chilling. The U.S spends more per student on elemntary and high school education than most developed nations do, yet those nations are a lot more advanced than us. At Anacostia High, 24 percent of kids graduate and 21 percent read at grade level. That means that 79 percent don't read at grade level. I think that it is all insane. By reading this I feel extremely lucky for attending PV and having my own laptop when some high schools don't have computers that work. What Rhee is doing is very helpful to all schools and I think its great.
