Gang violence is rising. School buildings are crumbling. An embezzlement scandal plagues the teachers' union. The superintendent abruptly quit. And with a budget deficit of about $21 million, school officials said this month they would cut 771 jobs -- 545 of them teaching positions.

D.C. Mayor Anthony Williams recently referred to the school system as a "slow-moving train wreck."

Police have gone to schools numerous times to break up fights, some between rival gangs. Patrols have been boosted around particularly troublesome schools, but violence persists.

And many students can't get the help they need at home because of this stark statistic: 37 percent of the city's adults read below a ninth-grade level.

Of course theres the typical blame on poor funding and poverty which leads to violence etc. I wonder if any of this has anything to do with the fact that there are so many niggers in DC? hehehe
