Teachers are Earning Their Pay?

                    

The National Assessment of Educational Progress has been called the Nation’s Report Card. It reported that only 23% of fourth-graders, 30% of eighth-graders, and 21% of 12th-graders were” proficient” or “advanced” on their national geography exam, given in 2010; educational-testing results today have sunk even further.

I saw one of the simple questions. Only 33% of eighth-graders got it right.

                       

With a student body such as this in the U.S. we certainly don’t get our money’s worth when it applies to education cost. But I do notice

teachers’ unionized pay and benefits are the highest ever.(See the Earl J. Weinreb NewsHole® comments and @BusinessNewshole at Twitter.)
