That's true. She is a straight A student, and you're totally right about lower standards for families with lower standards. Binghamton schools have become a babysitting service, and a propaganda dispensary.

There are dozens of pedophile teachers in my region. Lots of them have been prosecuted over the years. There's 2 history teachers named John Reid and Nick Zincone (one from Chenango Valley HS and the other from Windsor HS) who openly talk about how hot the (HS) girls on their sports teams are, but they haven't been accused of any crimes yet. They should probably be investigated though.

Same here. I did good in high school, but the only lessons that I find useful are the ones about Democrats purchasing, enslaving, and then segregating black African hostages. I learned more useful stuff in college, like the basics of Spanish, but still nothing that I couldn't have learned on my own. (I want a refund!)
