Baltimore City Schools are what they strive for....Keep 'em dumb, dependent, and voting dem while kicking back teacher union grift to the dems.
Let's look at the 10 worst school districts in America, and guess who runs them ALL?
1. Detroit, Michigan
Detroit’s schools have suffered years of financial mismanagement, the effects of which still plague the classrooms. Teachers and school workers say that you will hear plenty of complaints about deteriorating buildings and resource scarcity, making learning more difficult than necessary. Educators often work miracles, but the school system has not made things easy for them.
2. Baltimore, Maryland
The city of Baltimore’s education woes seem to follow its broader economic situation. Parents looking to navigate school options often report the process can be overwhelming and stressful. Test scores and graduation rates have shown improvement in some areas, but the overall progress is not linear.

Underfunding and student transiency are common themes in Cleveland schools. Many families point out that the quality of education in Cleveland varies widely from neighborhood to neighborhood.
