Common Core results in Long Beach

Long Beach School District was recently exposed when the common core test results were released last month and showed how terrible the scores were.

As a result the tax payer is paying double the amount of taxes for defacto segragation. This is a common tactic the teachers union and  administrators pull in school districts with high minority concentrations.
