All of 17% of 8th graders overseen by Obama Education Secretary-designee can read at their grade level according to a poll taken by CNS News. In 2007, only 17 percent of eighth graders tested at or above grade level in reading in Chicago Public Schools – the school system administered by Arne Duncan since 2001. Obama tagged him to become secretary of education. Lord help us all.


Duncan, hailed by Obama, said he would like to take the lessons he learned in Chicago with him when he moves to Washington. Geez, I hope not, we have enough problems without him.
