It's Supposed 2 Be Easy as ABC!!!

It's no secret that the United States ranks low in education when compared to other contributing nations.  Though studies show that the high school graduation rate is increasing, our communities is saying something else.  "Three out of every 10 American public students will fail to finish high school..."

Thirty percent of high schoolers do not graduate. Of that 30%, about 70% are minorities.  In Texas, 20% of all dropouts in the state are from Dallas or Houston.  

What happened to 'No Child left Behind?" Who is to blame for the lack of success in our educational system? Mom? Dad? Or the lack thereof? Poor school funding? The student? 

All this and much, much more on the Ash and Bates Show!
