Martin, you only need to look back a few years when the state of our city schools was brought to your attention. You excused and indicated the metrics were not an appropriate measure citing a book/ report some Californian published. These kids need to want to excel. Something segments of our society attempt to debred as being not appropriate. Tip said all politics is local. I say all education is local. How can you support our school system in bottom 10 percentile of Virginia schools?
Just fyi, I admit not reading your column in totality, but you give no reason to do so and no credibility to all you publish.
