California fails because illegals and their dumbass American family members erase any semblance of intelligence in that state.California is much worse.
A proposition passed in California back 1978 which limited tax increases for schools in California. California schools have declined in quality because of a lack of funds for education because of Proposition 13. Proposition 98 was supposed to restore funding for schools, but created many more problems than it solved, leading to protracted budget negotiations, which consumed time, energy, and money.
Until California finds an efficient, cost-effective way to fund the State's schools, California education will not improve.
Click on the link.The USA is the only First World country to spend less money on educating the children of the poor, than they do the rest of the nation's children. That's because school district budgets are tied to the property tax bases of the neighbourhoods where the schools are located. The rest of the First World spends equally on a per student basis across their geographical regions regardless of local tax rates.
This leaves poor American children doubly challenged. They need a good education to have a chance to improve their lives or their incomes. But unless they leave school with 21st century work skills, they have no hope. If their school doesn't teach computer skills, math and science, in order to compete with other countries' workers who are getting a thorough grounding in the skills they're going to need to compete.
Many poor school districts don't have computers. They don't have enough textbooks for each child to have one so they have to share. How can do homework or study without a textbook of your own?
Some rich neighbourhoods in poor Southern School Districts have incorporated themselves as separate municipalities in order to ensure that not a single one of their tax dollars goes to pay for a poor child's education.
Disgraceful.
What about Texas?
Texas sucks.
Not much of a shock . That's where trump gets his great uneducated voter block!

year in a row, Massachusetts finished first. Long a fixture of the top five, the Bay State beat its own 2015 result, raising its grade from a B (86.2) to a B-plus (86.8).
