Another Argument For School Vouchers
From a chain of private schools which enrolls a large number of immigrants:
"... the curriculum consisted of a slim workbook riddled with errors, including:
_The United States has 53 states but the "flag has not yet been updated to reflect the addition of the last three states" ? Hawaii, Alaska and Puerto Rico.
_World War II began in 1938 and ended in 1942.
_There are two houses of Congress ? the Senate and the House, and "one is for Democrats and the other is for the Republicans, respectively."
