Census Reveals Texas Education Miracle...Or Not.

Kevin Drum over at The Washington Monthly notes the new data from the census bureau concerning high school graduation rates. The good news is that country wide we are at an all time high of 85%. Sadly Texas is dead last with 77%.

Quoting Kevin: "But there's good news for Texans: both George Bush and Rod Paige, the superintendent of the Houston school district and the man most closely associated with the "Texas Miracle," are gone. The bad news is that George Bush is now president of the United States and Rod Paige is his Secretary of Education."
