E. Blue, I'll pm you shortly with what fair and balanced (and not in the Faux News kind of way) info I can share.

I have/had five children in Duval County schools.  It never ceases to amaze me what they don't teach them.  IMHO, there seems to be a race between the state and the county; the state is running to lower its education standards, and Duval County is racing to achieve them.  I'm aware of the discipline and achievement problems brought about by widespread parental apathy, most is not the problems of the teachers.  In an effort to avoid warehousing academically stagnant children, standards are continuously lowered in the hopes these kids will achieve the simplest goal to move them on.  Clay county is close to Jacksonville and doesn't seem to suffer to the extent the level of problems Duval is experiencing.  Again, these are just my observances.  Hopefully this clarified my stance.  I tried not to give the CNN version which omitted facts that conflicted with my bias.
