Last December a group of students in LA and Stockton filed a suit, asserting that education in their government schools suck ass. The suit noted that of the 26 shittiest large school districts in the country, 11 are in the formerly great state of California.
The State Dept. of Education tried to have the suit dismissed, asserting among other things that the state constitution does not necessarily guarantee a decent education, just a free one.
L. A. County Judge Yvette Palazuelos has just ruled that the suit may move forward.
The plaintiffs include the PTA and Calif. Teachers Association, a large union representing teachers.
EDITOR'S NOTE: California high school graduates can barely read or write, and cannot do simple math because their brains have been saturated with politically correct multiculturalism and diversity. But that holds true for most of the other states in our dumbed down country.

Many years ago the Dana Corp. was setting up a manufacturing plant in Stockton to supply the Numi auto plant in Fremont. Traditional blue-collar manufacturing at decent wages. They very quickly found out that many high-school graduates could not read their own graduation certificates and had to start giving basic English tests to applicants to ensure they could read well enough to read legally required safety information and follow basic written instructions. The schools have not gotten any better since then. More than half of the CA high school graduates going into community colleges or the Cal State college system have to take bonehead English and/or bonehead math because they can't pass the basic exam.
