This is exactly what the Democrats want – an army of morons, preferably violent, to wage their war on civilization. How to better to swell the ranks of their thug army?
Save your children. Government schools should be avoided like the plague. Parents must find alternatives.

55 Chicago schools report no students proficient in math or reading
Illinois state Sen. Willie Preston joins “Fox & Friends First” to discuss his concern surrounding the learning loss and how lawmakers and parents can act to counter the trend.
Parents nationwide are still battling the impact of stringent school closures and lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic, and Chicago families are no exception.
ADVERTISEMENTAn alarming report has revealed that dozens of Chicago schools claim no students are proficient in either math or reading despite the state and federal government funneling billions of dollars into education in the Windy City.
Illinois state Sen. Willie Preston, a Democrat and a father of six, joined “Fox & Friends First” to discuss the report and how parents and lawmakers in the city can help children excel in the classroom post-pandemic.
“Government isn’t the anthem for all things,” Preston told Griff Jenkins. “I think that we have to reengage parents, have parents actively take a role inside the schools when they can be, but in addition, we need to make certain that we … spend our money in the right way as it pertains to our children’s education.”
Wirepoints released the findings that stem from 2022 data from the Illinois Department of Education, which indicated that in 55 Chicago public schools, no students were reported proficient in either math or reading.
