		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m going to be blunt. There are a lot of ignorant Americans walking the streets of this great country, and I&#8217;m not sure what to do about it. We already know dollars spent per student, teacher to student ratios nor the number of computers in the classroom have much effect on academic performance, so today [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m using syndicate to imply a negative connotation. Here at Conservative247 we try our best to pass along information that is educational. Generally, it&#8217;s no holds barred when it comes to providing lessons about what defines conservative concepts here in the United States.
If you have not added Walter E. Williams to your reading list, you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Quite frequently local municipalities provide data detailing how much money is spent per pupil for budget disclosure. But are the numbers we are provided the real cost of educating kids in the United States?
It should be a pretty easy calculation, take the total amount of money spent to run the facility, pay teacher salaries and [...]]]></description>

We&#8217;ve all read about the results; students are barred from [...]]]></description>

America&#8217;s Promise Alliance, founded by Colin Powell, released a report entitled Cities in Crisis, A Special Analytic Report on High School Graduation [PDF, 1.8 MB]. Overall, only seven in 10 high school student go on to graduate, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A California appellate court has ruled that it is not legal for parents who lack official government teaching credentials to home-school their kids. This ruling is freaking out the parents of about 166,000 kids who are home schooled in the state.
There is little doubt that the public school system is not doing a good job [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Walter Williams posted his column yesterday that dealt with the average cost paid &#8211; per year I assume &#8211; by public secondary education schools in the U.S. compared to other countries. He also looks quickly at the academic results posted by the U.S. Department of Education1. We&#8217;re not doing all that well; ranked 33rd in [...]]]></description>
