The below statement by Chris shows his lack of understanding of students' achievement in those so called Third world countries where students excel in their subjects.Seen the results of the spelling bees ?. Haitian students,who come in rickety and dilapidated boats,do well in public schools in Miami. Michael 'omnicentric' Sylvester,PhD Daytona Beach,Florida
