Once Again, Texas Leads the Way

Sure, it's the wrong way, but still, . . .

Austin Local News: "A new survey released by the nonprofit group Texans Care for Children shows that one out of every three Texas students may not make their way across the graduation stage to receive their diploma.

The survey reveals that Texas is ranked last in high school graduation rates and also found that more children in Texas had to retake kindergarten."

Not to be a smartaleck, but "... more children in Texas had to retake kindergarten" ?? You can flunk kindergarten?

I think in Texas kindergarten doesn't end until age fourteen, unless marriage intervenes.
