Brandon High fails to have a 90% graduation rate!

On Tuesday, March 4 your School Board will CELEBRATE that only 4 out of about 30 high schools in Hillsborough County have a graduations rate above 90%. Yes, rather than be mortified at their shameful minority track record and all the other regular high schools that DO NOT have a graduation rate above 90%, your school board will instead crow about the 4 predominantly white high schools that- despite your ineffective school board- somehow managed to achieve a graduation rate above 90%. This will be at their Recognition Meeting on Tuesday, March 4 at 5:30 pm.

The school board wants you to think that they are doing a great job and they are only providing the graduation rates of these 4 schools at their meeting; not the dismal graduations rates of all the other high schools so you can see what is really going on.

And school board member Stacy White wants to be your county commissioner next; good luck with that! Read more about that and the latest school board machinations at Scott Adams blog
