The BOE, DOE, past and current governors lumped all their eggs in one "college readiness" program 2025 campaign!  what these brilliant leaders did was take away many career tech programs in the schools.
I don't know about any of you out there, but i hear those rail workers, plumbers, carpenters, chefs are making pretty good money.  wonder what all those college grads with communication, sociology, etc are making over at pizza hut, or working in the A+ after school programs.
bring back the career tech programs, not everyone wants to go to a university.
