Actually
Giving 240K to that guy was not a problem of our education system, it was a problem with our political system that allows the government to feed propaganda out over the airwaves and nobody even gets their hand slapped. "No Child Left Behind" is a piece of crap that should be included in any MBA organizational behavior course as a prime example of getting what you reward which isn't necessarily what you want.
Unfortunately, Mr. Williams has a point. Unfortunately, as long as the classroom goes as slowly as the slowest student and unless the students want to learn and/or the parents want the student to learn, things aren't going to get any better.
Idiot moves by the Federal Government notwithstanding.
