Great to shut these schools down. What happens to the kids; where will they go? What happens to the principles of these schools – in my opinion, they should be fired for being so incompetent.
Can they open charter schools in these places? at least, Charters have more competent teachers and principles (and management) and they’ll most likely do a better job in turning the kids around.
