“This is the unintended consequence of school choice,”

Huh, I thought that was the unintended consequence of running a shitty school.

I’m also pretty sure it was the intended consequence of school choice. Crappier schools would have to change or die off.

You can see how no matter how pathetic/crappy any government institution is, it’s almost impossible to kill it off, even with alternatives available. The gov’t rarely shuts any part of itself down, it just limps along in dysfunction.

The hydra will keep sprouting heads to feed the heads that are half dead.

It’s only taxpayer money feeding it, and there’s always more where that comes from.

Blame whitey, and gentrification, which is apparently the same thing to the people making comments on that article.

Admit this – North Charleston is a craphole. It’s largest employer left years ago, and even with Volvo coming in and Boeing at the airport, and if we expand the port, it’s still going to be a crap hole. No body making good enough money to live beyond the Ashley is gonna live in No Chas. Better to pave most of it over and make a large rail terminal for the port. The rest of it turn into a giant paintball competition area. Otherwise, stick a fork in it, it’s done. Oh, and build a wall between NChas and Charleston proper.

News Flash! Volvo is not coming to N. Charleston. Exit 187 is not even in Charleston County.

I’m sure private schools like Porter Gaud and Bishop England would be happy to accept the students in North Charleston. Really….

If the kid comes to school to work most private schools are delighted to accept them – if they come for day care, well, that’s a different story. I’ve had kids in public and private school, have one in both right now – they both have their benefits and drawbacks but my high schooler in private school gets the attention he needs to be successful and I get the communication I need from the school to ensure we’re working as a team.

People moving away from bad neighborhoods to escape bad schools is a choice? That has to be a joke. It is basic survival. The ones “left behind” are the ones that scared everyone else off to begin with. They don’t deserve your pity. All of our public school are to varying degrees just children’s day prisons. Halfway houses until the kids are old enough for the real thing. With a system that social promotes kids who should be expelled it is no wonder school turn to crap as soon as real estate values start to slide in an area.

Howie the Voucher Clown and his Chief Voucher Pimp (sic Willllliy) have been exposed as the voucher whores they are.

They don’t really care about all students.

They only care about the voucher scam to rob from the poor.

Vouchers (regardless of what Howie the Clown and sic(k) willie call the scam) would do nothing but leave those who need help the most even further behind.

Howie’s voucher scam is dead is S.C.

A former Midland’s elected official said so, and he was wright. Sic(k) willie keeps getting payout slugs from Howie, so he will keep pimping the voucher scam.

But, we keep hearing that giant sucking sound as the S.C. Legislature keeps flushing Howie the Voucher Clown’s scam down the toilet into the sewer – where it belongs.

It doesn’t matter how much money or how good the teachers/books/materials are, if the individuals don’t want to be good, productive students, they are never going to be good, productive students, especially at the high school level. By that time if they have already started joining gangs and bringing weapons and guns to school, that is all they are interested in. Therefore, the people who actually care about their education make the choice to move to a different school, and rightfully so. Why should their children, who want to learn, be dragged down by the degenerates at gang ridden schools? Besides, I think education should be paid for, in part, by the parents and not totally by the state anyway. That way we can really see who wants their children to be successful (because they would actually pay) and who is really just looking for a daycare to dump their children (because they would not be willing to pay).

Will Folks—with the brain of a very small pea and the
hypocrisy of Joe-Rip-Down-The-Flag-Wilson said

Let’s jump on the bandwagon and bash Confederate patriots
now that the Charleston nine are all dead

Meanwhile the conservatives whom Nikki and Joe stabbed in
the back kept home-schooling their kids

While the cesspool schools Nikki and Joe kept throwing MORE
money at kept flushing—hitting the skids

But Joe and Nikki—content with Will to just know about Jesus—never
could grasp like Psalm 53:1 fools

That the reason that Leroy can’t read is the Godless
government that rips off taxpayers to run failed schools !!!
