City SAT Scores Lowest Since 2003

I too agree that the fact that Third World immagrants who are inundating the school system do not add value to our society they only want to get by and it shows in the social behavoir that is now our youth.

This atmosphere of mediocrity is a far cry from the European immigrants who came to this country in the early Twentieth Century, in search of a better life not the one they had, today immagrants come here to create their culture here in the US, our parents did whatever was necessary to get their children educated!

Parents now a days forget that their job isn't done just because their child is now in High School, they need you more now!
