There is much hand-wringing over the sad state of education in our state. Perhaps this might clue you in as to why so many of our children are unable to construct a proper sentence.
Teachers at Justiss Elementary had a rally to prepare the kids for TAKS. To begin with, I just can't imagine having a pep rally to take a test. We had pep rallies for football and basketball games. We had study assignments for tests. Anyway, some of the teachers did a rap called "What You Know 'Bout TAKS." Don't you think it might help our students if our teachers set the example by using proper grammar instead of common thug street language and music?
