The article concluded with the following:

"The lesson is that some careful, independent analysis is needed before more public funds are expended on a small school initiative."

Rather, it might be better if public funds, which are already being spent on an "over-bloated" New York City public school system, to be spent in building more prisons and jails. After all, with the less-than mediocre performance of the student population in general, they will, no-doubt, need to be housed somewhere after they throw away a free education.

The late U. S. Supreme Court justice correctly stated:

"It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime, or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind. The principle that sustains compulsory vaccination is broad enough to cover cutting the Fallopian tubes. Three generations of imbeciles are enough." Buck v. Bell, 274 U.S. 200 (1927).

The product of these "small schools" will take their intellectual deficiencies and do nothing more than live off the public dole, while procreating a generation of intellectual deficients which will only increase in a geometric progression.
