Discussion on Education (RETIRED BLOG): 88% of DC 8th-graders can't read
http://discusseducation.blogspot.com/2008/09/88-of-dc-8th-graders-cant-read.html

If you actually watch the news clip the actual statistic is that only 12% of eighth graders are proficient at the eighth grade level per NAEP exams (and only 8% in math). Isn't that bad enough without a misleading headline? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.
