Gee, how can you keep failing schools from shutting down?
The answer is obvious: lower the standards!
North Carolina was confronted by a problem: “Damn! Too many of our public schools are failing!” What to do? Well, no sense riling the teachers’ unions. Just change the definition of failure! The “F” mark used to be “60”; so they lowered it to “39”.
What happens when it gets down to “0”?
