minus-squareDarkFuture@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 day ago States can and did run their own school system Yes, poorly. With no guarantee that their student’s Constitutional rights were being respected. and I’m sorry to spoil your spoil, but lots of kids churning out of the system today can’t read. Again, you need to do your homework. In 1870 11.5% of whites were illiterate and a staggering 80% of blacks and other minorities were illiterate. By 1979 only .04% of whites and 1.6% of blacks and other minorities were illiterate. Generally speaking, from 1870 to 2003 the overall literacy rate went from 80% to 99%. A federalized educational system is one of the best things to ever happen to this country, or any country.
