Hey! Don't be hatin' on my alma mater! It wasn't that good, but I doubt it's the worst. My brother's a teacher in NYC, and my sister's a senior in DCPS, and things sound much grimmer up in New York.

Of course, with the new "No child left behind" travesty, the best high school in DC could be closed because their attendance isn't high enough. Not enrollment - attendance.

Actually, I think the best thing for education might be another draft - some of the best teachers I had became teachers to avoid the Vietnam War.
